ABSTRACT
Children exhibiting ADHD symptoms have been shown to be at high risk of academic failure, grade repetition and poor academic achievement. Few research studies have addressed the problem of assessing the incidence of ADHD symptoms in Transylvanian children. In this study, besides the prevalence of ADHD symptoms: inattention and hyperactivity, emotional and behavioral problems were assessed among elementary school students without formal diagnosis of ADHD. Teachers completed the Teacher Report Form (TRF) for 68 children with ages between 7-10 years. Based on teachers’ ratings, results show that children exhibiting symptoms of ADHD, have also academic impairments, poor school outcomes. Psychoeducational implications of the findings and suggestions for further research are discussed.
Keywords: ADHD, hyperactivity, inattention, academic impairment
