Parents of children with ADHD are more likely to present the disorder, which can affect quality of life and parenting strategies. Few studies have examined parental ADHD to date, none in France. Prevalence of self-rated ADHD symptoms in adulthood and childhood was estimated among 60 biological mothers or fathers of children with confirmed ADHD in France. Cutoffs were total score ≥46 on the Wender Utah Rating Scale and ≥4 on the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale Screener. Results indicated possible child and adult ADHD in 12.5% of mothers and 10.0% of fathers. As these percentages exceed reported prevalence rates for the French population, a greater effort must be made to diagnose the disorder in parents.
患有注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）儿童的父母更有可能出现该病症，这会影响生活质量和育儿策略。迄今为止，很少有研究调查过父母患ADHD的情况，法国尚无此类研究。在法国，对60名确诊患有ADHD儿童的亲生母亲或父亲进行了成人期和儿童期自评ADHD症状患病率的评估。临界值为温德尔犹他评定量表总分≥46分，成人ADHD自我报告量表筛查量表得分≥4分。结果表明，12.5%的母亲和10.0%的父亲可能患有儿童及成人ADHD。由于这些百分比超过了法国人口报告的患病率，因此必须加大力度对父母进行该病症的诊断。
