A comparison was made between adults with depression and with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) on a battery of cognitive tests of attention span and memory. Both the ADHD and depression groups were subdivided with regard to comorbid depression in the ADHD group and developmental learning disorder in both groups. Utilizing Discriminant Function Analysis, it was found that variables derived from the California Verbal Learning Test, the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test, and the Stroop Test discriminated among the various subgroups at a level significantly exceeding chance. However, although the great majority of the ADHD participants were correctly classified, there were numerous misclassifications among the depressed groups. It was concluded that the tests used were highly sensitive to ADHD, but were also sensitive to a subgroup of depressed individuals.
对患有抑郁症的成年人和患有注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）的成年人进行了一系列注意力广度和记忆的认知测试比较。ADHD组和抑郁症组均根据ADHD组中的共病抑郁症以及两组中的发育性学习障碍进行了细分。利用判别函数分析发现，来自加利福尼亚言语学习测试、听觉节奏系列加法测试和斯特鲁普测试的变量在各个亚组之间的区分度显著超过随机水平。然而，尽管绝大多数ADHD参与者被正确分类，但抑郁症组中仍有许多错误分类。研究得出结论，所使用的测试对ADHD高度敏感，但对一部分抑郁症个体也敏感。
