To determine ADHD research priorities from the perspective of ADHD professionals internationally.
A two-stage modified Delphi design was used. In Stage 1 (qualitative), participants listed research questions relating to ADHD that they perceived to be most important ( = 132). In Stage 2 (quantitative), participants were then asked to rate each research question that was deemed appropriate (able to be researched and not already addressed by research) in terms of perceived importance ( = 180).
Stage 1 generated 382 research questions with 10 broad areas identified for example, co-occurring conditions and treatment, etc. The top 20 most important questions related to ADHD in women/girls, long-term medication use, non-pharmacological interventions, ADHD measurement/rating scales, and efficacy of emotional regulation interventions.
These results can inform an ADHD research agenda which represents the views of the individuals from major ADHD professional groups internationally. Parallel work is needed focusing on research priorities from the perspective of ADHD consumers.
从国际多动症专业人士的角度确定多动症研究重点。
采用两阶段改良德尔菲设计。在第一阶段（定性阶段），参与者列出他们认为与多动症相关的最重要的研究问题（共132个）。在第二阶段（定量阶段），要求参与者根据感知到的重要性对每个被认为合适的研究问题（能够进行研究且尚未被现有研究解决）进行评分（共180个）。
第一阶段产生了382个研究问题，并确定了10个广泛领域，例如共病情况和治疗等。最重要的前20个问题涉及女性/女孩多动症、长期药物使用、非药物干预、多动症测量/评定量表以及情绪调节干预的效果。
这些结果可为多动症研究议程提供参考，该议程代表了国际上主要多动症专业群体的个人观点。还需要开展平行工作，从多动症患者的角度关注研究重点。
