Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been associated with low levels of self-concept (academic, emotional, social or physical), although this association can differ in the function of the inattention or hyperactivity-impulsivity symptomatology. Furthermore, the relation between ADHD and self-concept can be mediated or moderated by the levels of anxiety. This work is aimed to examine the differential effect of inattention symptomatology and hyperactivity-impulsivity symptomatology on academic, emotional, social and physical self-concept and the mediating or moderating role of anxiety in this relationship. A total of 167 students (70.7% boys and 29.3% girls) aged between 11 and 16 participated in this study. Students' ADHD symptomatology, self-concept in four areas (academic, emotional, social and physical self-concept) and trait anxiety were measured with the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children. The results indicate that trait anxiety mediates the relationship between inattention and emotional, social and physical self-concept but does not moderate this relationship. Trait anxiety does not mediate or moderate the relationship between hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms and self-concept. When inattention symptomatology increases, academic self-concept decreases directly, but students' emotional, social and physical self-concept decreases indirectly through trait anxiety.
注意力缺陷/多动障碍(ADHD)与低水平的自我概念(学业、情感、社交或身体方面)有关,尽管这种关联在注意力不集中或多动冲动症状的作用方面可能有所不同。此外,ADHD与自我概念之间的关系可能会受到焦虑水平的中介或调节。这项研究旨在探讨注意力不集中症状和多动冲动症状对学业、情感、社交和身体自我概念的差异影响,以及焦虑在这种关系中的中介或调节作用。共有167名年龄在11至16岁之间的学生(70.7%为男生,29.3%为女生)参与了本研究。使用儿童状态-特质焦虑量表测量了学生的ADHD症状、四个领域的自我概念(学业、情感、社交和身体自我概念)以及特质焦虑。结果表明,特质焦虑介导了注意力不集中与情感、社交和身体自我概念之间的关系,但并未调节这种关系。特质焦虑既没有介导也没有调节多动冲动症状与自我概念之间的关系。当注意力不集中症状增加时,学业自我概念直接下降,但学生的情感、社交和身体自我概念通过特质焦虑间接下降。
