About the Course

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a developmental disorder, with an onset in childhood, that accompanies the person throughout their life, with prevalence between 3 and 5% in adults. Recent studies point towards a fourth core symptom of the disorder related to the emotional information processing that would explain the repercussions that ADHD has on the social, academic, and professional life of the people affected. This review aims to describe emotion dysregulation features as well as the brain activity associated in adults with ADHD.

This course is based on the reading-based online article, Evidence of Emotion Dysregulation As a Core Symptom of Adult ADHD: A Systematic Review created by Ana María Soler-Gutiérrez, Juan-Carlos Perez-González, and Julia Mayas in 2023.
