There is no research about whether ADHD with tic disorder that temperamental features that differ from the ADHD. This research aimed to identify temperament and character profiles for children with ADHD according to tic disorder by comparing them with a healthy control group. A discriminant analysis was conducted to identify whether temperament and character profiles can discriminate comorbidity. The sample consisted of three groups (N = 40 per group): ADHD alone, ADHD with tic disorder and age- and sex- matched healthy control. The parents of 120 children (mean age 8.57 ± 1.71 years) completed the Junior Temperament and Character Inventory (JTCI). The two ADHD groups showed higher novelty seeking and low persistence, self-directedness and cooperativeness than the control group. The ADHD alone group had lower scores for persistence and self-directedness than the other two groups. Temperament and character profiles were useful for discriminating ADHD from the control group. However, their discriminating power was relatively low for all three groups. Results indicated that differences in temperament and character in ADHD children were present according to comorbid tic disorders. JTCI's discriminating power for ADHD alone and ADHD with tic disorder was relatively lower than that of the combined ADHD group and the control group.
目前尚无关于注意缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）伴发与 ADHD 气质特征不同的抽动障碍的研究。本研究旨在通过比较伴发抽动障碍的 ADHD 患儿与健康对照组，确定根据抽动障碍对 ADHD 患儿的气质和性格特征进行分类的方法。通过判别分析来确定气质和性格特征是否可以区分共病。该样本包括三组（每组 40 名儿童）：ADHD 组、ADHD 伴抽动障碍组和年龄、性别匹配的健康对照组。120 名儿童的家长（平均年龄 8.57±1.71 岁）完成了青少年气质和性格量表（JTCI）。两个 ADHD 组的新奇寻求和低坚持、自我导向和合作性均高于对照组。ADHD 组的坚持和自我导向性得分低于其他两组。气质和性格特征有助于将 ADHD 与对照组区分开来。然而，对于所有三组，其判别能力相对较低。结果表明，存在伴发抽动障碍的 ADHD 儿童的气质和性格存在差异。对于 ADHD 组和 ADHD 伴抽动障碍组，JTCI 的判别能力均低于 ADHD 组和对照组的组合。
