Recent studies have suggested a link between a primary anxiety disorder and ADHD.
A total of 39 participants with a primary diagnosis of social phobia were compared with 178 patients with ADHD and 88 patients with other psychiatric disorders on measures for childhood and adult ADHD (the Wender Utah Rating Scale and the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale).
Childhood symptoms of ADHD were reported by 7.8% of the social phobia participants, and 5.1% scored within the range of adult ADHD. The social phobia group reported significantly fewer ADHD symptoms than both of the comparison groups, who frequently reported social anxiety.
Participants with social phobia recruited from the general population are less likely to suffer from ADHD. In contrast, patients with ADHD and patients with other psychiatric disorders appear to be likely to suffer from social anxiety.
最近的研究表明，原发性焦虑障碍与 ADHD 之间存在关联。
共有 39 名被诊断为社交恐惧症的参与者，与 178 名 ADHD 患者和 88 名其他精神障碍患者进行了比较，评估了他们儿童期和成年期的 ADHD（Wender Utah 评定量表和成人 ADHD 自评量表）。
7.8%的社交恐惧症参与者报告了 ADHD 的儿童期症状，5.1%的参与者的 ADHD 症状达到成人 ADHD 的范围。社交恐惧症组报告的 ADHD 症状明显少于两个对照组，后者经常报告社交焦虑。
从普通人群中招募的社交恐惧症参与者不太可能患有 ADHD。相比之下，患有 ADHD 和其他精神障碍的患者似乎更有可能患有社交焦虑。
