This paper analyses the relationship between sociodemographic variables, executive dysfunctions, Sluggish Cognitive Tempo (SCT) and the mainly dimensions of ADHD: hyperactivity-impulsivity (ADHD-H/I) and inattention (ADHD-IN) in Brazilian adults.
A cross-sectional, exploratory, and comparative design was used. A total of 446 participants (295 women) aging from 18 to 63 years old ( = 3,499 years, = 10.7) were recruited on the internet. Correlations, independent tests and regressions were conducted.
Higher scores in ADHD dimensions were associated to more executive functioning problems and time perception distortions in comparison to those participants without significant ADHD symptoms. However, ADHD-IN dimension as well as SCT were higher associated with these dysfunctions than ADHD-H/I. The regression results showed that ADHD-IN was more related to Self-Management to time while ADHD-H/I to Self-Restraint and SCT to Self-Organization/Problem Solving.
This paper contributed to the distinction between SCT and ADHD in adults in important psychological dimensions.
本文分析了巴西成年人的社会人口统计学变量、执行功能障碍、认知迟缓节奏（SCT）与注意缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）的主要维度：多动冲动（ADHD-H/I）和注意力不集中（ADHD-IN）之间的关系。
采用横断面、探索性和比较性设计。通过互联网招募了446名年龄在18至63岁之间（平均年龄=34.99岁，标准差=10.7）的参与者（295名女性）。进行了相关性分析、独立样本检验和回归分析。
与没有明显ADHD症状的参与者相比，ADHD各维度得分较高与更多的执行功能问题和时间感知扭曲有关。然而，ADHD-IN维度以及SCT与这些功能障碍的关联比ADHD-H/I更高。回归结果表明，ADHD-IN与时间自我管理的相关性更强，而ADHD-H/I与自我克制相关，SCT与自我组织/解决问题相关。
本文在重要的心理维度上有助于区分成年人的SCT和ADHD。
