ADD/ADHD and Violence

It also discusses risk-taking and intense-stimulation accounts and provides citations and study abstracts.

ADD / ADHD and Executive Function

This resource compiles abstracts and summaries of research on adult ADHD and neuropsychological functioning. The included topics span attention, memory, executive functions, differences across adult ADHD groups, diagnostic approaches, and mindfulness-based interventions, with studies using varied methods and samples.

ADHD: Violence and Antisocial Behavior

This overview discusses research linking ADHD, executive-function difficulties, impulsivity, and anger with antisocial or violent behavior. It cites studies and authors describing associations with later aggression, arrests, and other risky behaviors, while presenting these as research claims about risk patterns rather than outcomes for every person with ADHD.
