Behaviour ratings of executive functions in adolescents with ADHD: correlation with core symptoms and functional impairment measured by multiple informants
We found that EFDs were strongly correlated both with higher levels of core symptoms of ADHD, and higher level of functional impairment as reported by the same informant. We also found, in line with previous research, that ratings of symptoms and impairment differs between informants and settings. Our findings underline the importance of multiple informants in both assessment and treatment planning.
