Thank you for your feedback. The question you referred to is adapted from the DSM-IV criteria, which is part of a widely used self-assessment test for ADHD in both the US and Europe. This test is designed to simplify the evaluation of the 18 symptom criteria for ADHD across different stages of life, including childhood and adulthood. It includes a range of concrete and realistic examples drawn from common descriptions provided by adult patients in clinical practice.
These examples help illustrate the types of impairments commonly associated with ADHD symptoms in various areas of everyday life, such as work and education, relationships and family life, social contacts, free time and hobbies, as well as self-confidence and self-image.
We value your input and have rephrased the question to make it easier to understand. We hope this adjustment improves the clarity and usefulness of our assessment.
It is a “this or that” question but your answers are not “this or that” answers.
Are you someone who follows a set schedule, or do you prefer flexibility and unexpected events?
