The Cognitive Characteristics of ADHD Children on the ADS and KEDI-WISC

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate how ADS results change according to ADS assessments results and intelligence level of children diagnosed with ADHD, and how results of intelligence level and visual and auditory can show more accurate compare to ADS in analyzing diagnose ADHD. The participants were 195 clinically diagnosed ADHD children who visited the child-adolescent psychiatry clinic of a university medical center. The cognitive characteristics of ADHD children were assessed using the ADS and Korean Educational Development Institute-Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children(KEDI-WISC). The findings were as follows. Firstly, showed scores on the arithmetic subtest of the KEDI-WISC showed no significant discriminant sensitivity even though this subtest is associated with the Freedom from Distractibility factor index. Due to difference between the cultural aspects of the academic environment in Korea where children are concentrating heavily in arithmetic. Secondly, the best diagnostic measure in both the visual ADS and auditory ADS scores showed that the 'standard deviation of hit reaction time'. Finally, whereas the correlations between the auditory ADS scores and the KEDI-WISC subtests were generally high, those between the visual ADS scores and the KEDI-WISC were found to be low for four of the subtests. The results also showed that children with high IQ scores obtained T scores of less than 60 on the auditory ADS, whereas on the visual ADS children obtained T scores over 60 regardless of IQ level. The clinical implications and limitations of the present study were discussed.
