Abstract
Objective: Various studies have examined rates of remission in ADHD with mixed results.
Method: Survival curve analyses were performed on a community-based sample.
Results: The results of the current study appear to support the contemporary literature that rates of remission in ADHD are lower than have been found in many earlier studies. The current study also reports a mean age of remission in ADHD of around 14 years old, which has not been previously reported via survival curve analyses. Additionally, the results of the current study found several variables to be significantly associated with remission in ADHD which included: the presence of comorbid disorder; lower symptoms of ADHD; sex of the child (being female); and the receipt of behavioral treatment.
Conclusion: Implications and limitations are discussed as related to these findings.
