This study compared young adults (ages 18 to 26) with and without childhood attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) on self-reported risky sexual behaviors. Participants were 175 men with childhood ADHD and 111 demographically similar men without ADHD in the Pittsburgh ADHD Longitudinal Study (PALS). Childhood ADHD predicted earlier initiation of sexual activity and intercourse, more sexual partners, more casual sex, and more partner pregnancies. Although childhood conduct problems did contribute significantly to risky sexual behaviors among participants with ADHD, there was also an independent contribution of ADHD, suggesting that the characteristic deficits of the disorder or other associated features may be useful childhood markers of later vulnerability.
这项研究比较了有和没有儿童注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）的年轻成年人（18至26岁）自我报告的危险性行为。在匹兹堡ADHD纵向研究（PALS）中，参与者为175名患有儿童ADHD的男性和111名人口统计学特征相似但无ADHD的男性。儿童ADHD预示着更早开始性活动和性交、有更多性伴侣、更多一夜情以及伴侣怀孕次数更多。虽然儿童期行为问题确实对患有ADHD的参与者的危险性行为有显著影响，但ADHD也有独立的影响，这表明该障碍的特征性缺陷或其他相关特征可能是后期易感性的有用儿童期标志。
