Investigating the reasons behind a later or missed diagnosis of attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder in young people: A population cohort study
Our findings highlight the need to consider ADHD referral, regardless of cognitive and prosocial ability or comorbidities, if children are displaying ADHD symptoms. Additionally, symptoms of ADHD not traditionally included in screening criteria, such as emotional dysregulation, should be considered to improve gender-inclusive recognition of ADHD.
