Objective

ADHD is one of the most common mental disorders

of childhood and adolescence, and characterized by inattention,

hyperactivity, and impulsivity symptomatology. The objective of

this study is to find out the difference between ADHD prevalence

in parents of children with or without ADHD.

Method

A total of 132 parents of 90 ADHD children; aged

between 6 and 12, and 67 parents of 45 non-ADHD children were

recruited in the study. Control parents were matched to ADHD

children parents according to age, gender and educational status.

Results

Rate of childhood ADHDwere significantly higher among

parents of ADHD children compared to the parents of control group

(

P

= 0.039). Rate of adult ADHD (

P

= 0.076) was not significantly but

higher among parents of ADHD children compared to the parents

of control group.

Conclusion

In our study, we found the prevelance of childhood

ADHD in parents of children with ADHD, similar to those reported

by published studies but the prevelance of adult ADHD is lower

than most of the previous studies. There may be several reasons

for us to find a relatively low rate of adult ADHD. Firstly, in our

study only parents of ADHD children are investigated, but in the

previous studies not only parents but also siblings of ADHD children

are investigated. Secondly, in the previous studies adult ADHD is

diagnosed according to DSM-III; not DSM-IV. Under the highlight

of our findings, assessing adult ADHD in patientswith having a child

with ADHD is important for treatment and prognosis.

Introduction

The evidence of potentially greater long-term

benefits of psychoanalysis (PA) in comparison to long-term psy-

chodynamic psychotherapy (LPP) is scarce.

Aims

This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of PA and LPP

on different aspects of functioning and wellbeing during a 10-year

follow-up from the beginning of the treatments.

Methods

Altogether 169 patients were included in the study:

41 patients self-selected for PA and 128 patients assigned to LPP

in the Helsinki Psychotherapy Study. The eligible patients were

20–45 years of age and had a long-standing anxiety or mood disor-

der causing work dysfunction. Potential confounding factors were

assessed at baseline and acknowledged in analyzing outcomes in

personality (LPO, IIP-64, DSQ, SASB) and social functioning (SAS-SR,

SOC, Perceived competence, LSS), psychiatric diagnoses (DSM-IV),

symptoms (SCL-90, HDRS, HARS), work ability (SAS-work,WAI, PPF,

GAF, work status), and remission, including the use of additional

psychiatric treatment, measured 5 to 14 times during the 10-year

follow-up.

Results

From the 5-year to the 7-year follow-up personality and

social functioning improved significantlymore in the PA than in the

LPP group. In the domain of psychiatric symptoms and work ability

practically no differences were found beyond the 5-year follow-up

and at the final 10-year measurement, when psychiatric and work

status was relatively good in both treatment groups.

Conclusions

PA may give additional benefits especially when

personality-related long-term aims are essential and less intensive

treatments are not considered to be sufficient.

Introduction

Several studies showed that among people with

ADHD, the prevalence of psychiatric co-morbidities is the rule, both

in general population and in perpetrators.

Objectives

To analyze the relationship between ADHD and other

psychiatric symptoms among prison inmates from a high security

male prison in Portugal.

Methods

A total of 101 subjects aged 18–65, with at least 4 years

of formal education, were interviewed for socio-demographic data

and completed the ASRS-v1.1 (Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale) and

the BSI (Brief Symptom Inventory). Subjects were divided into

ADHD positive or negative according to their score on ASRS-v1.1,

and then compared regarding BSI scores using Student’s t-test.

Results

Seventeen subjects scored positive for ADHD. They sig-

nificantly differed from the non-ADHD group in the total BSI score

(

t

=

4.27,

P

< 0.001). When looking into the different subscales of

BSI, the groups differed in the subscales of obsessions/compulsions

(

t

=

4.05,

P

< 0.001), interpersonal sensibility (

t

=

3.47,

P

0.001),

hostility (

t

=

6.71,

P

< 0.001), paranoia (

t

=

3.17,

P

0.002) and psy-

chotism (

t

=

3.20,

P

0.002), with the ADHD group scoring higher in

all the mentioned subscales. No significant differences were found

between the groups in the subscales regarding anxiety, depression

or somatization.

Conclusions

In line with previous work, our study showed a

higher prevalence of psychopathology in prison inmates with

ADHD, then in non-ADHD subjects. However, while higher preva-

lence of depressive and anxiety symptoms in ADHD subjects is

mentioned in other studies, we found no differences between

the two groups concerning those subscales. The subscales that

significantly differed, point to higher prevalence of disfunctional

relationships and a higher tendency for violent behaviour in the

ADHD group.
