Abstract
This study examined gender patterns among DSM-IV ADHD subtypes in a nationally representative sample of Australian children to address the research questions: 1) What is the discriminant validity of ADHD subtypes in boys and girls and 2) Do the characteristics of boys and girls with ADHD differ? The findings of the study suggest that ADHD subtypes are influenced by gender and that there may be gender specific risks with regard to ADHD symptom expression.
