Are changes in ADHD course reflected in differences in IQ and executive functioning from childhood to young adulthood?

CONCLUSIONS: Differences in ADHD course - persistence, remission and late-onset - were not directly reflected in changes in IQ. Instead, having ADHD at any point across development was associated with lower average IQ and poorer executive functioning. Our finding that individuals with persistent ADHD have poorer response inhibition than those who remitted requires replication. PMID: 31718730 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
