Relationship Between ADHD-Like Traits and Emotion Dysregulation in the Adult General Population
Objectives
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder classically characterised by inattention and/or hyperactivity/impulsivity. However, emotion-related problems are also common in people with ADHD, although there is disagreement about their relationship with the classical symptoms of ADHD. Here, we investigated the relationship between emotion dysregulation and ADHD-like traits in a non-clinical group of adults.
Method
In a group of 1074 individuals, average age 30.27 years, 656 females, 402 males and 16 who identified as ‘other’, with 76.8% describing themselves as ‘white’, were administered the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS) and the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) to measure ADHD-like traits and emotion dysregulation, respectively.
Results
The Inattention subscale of the ASRS was significantly correlated with all subscales of the DERS. Similarly, the Hyperactivity/impulsivity subscale was correlated with all subscales of the DERS except for the Lack of emotional awareness. The Lack of emotional clarity and Difficulties engaging in goal-directed behaviour subscales of the DERS were significant independent positive predictors of ASRS inattention scores. Non-acceptance of emotional responses, Difficulties engaging in goal-directed behaviour, Impulse control difficulties and Lack of emotional clarity subscales of the DERS were significant independent positive predictors of ASRS hyperactivity/impulsivity scores. In other words, as inattention and hyperactive/impulsive symptoms increased in severity, there was a concomitant increase in the severity of most aspects of emotion dysregulation.
Conclusions
The close association between emotion dysregulation and the classical symptoms of ADHD suggests that they may arise from a common dysfunctional substrate and hence treating emotion dysregulation may provide a novel pathway by which to treat the classical symptoms.

Advances in Neurodevelopmental Disorders publishes high-quality research in the broad area of neurodevelopmental disorders across the lifespan. Study participants may include individuals with:Intellectual and developmental disabilitiesGlobal developmental delayCommunication disordersLanguage disordersSpeech sound disordersChildhood-onset fluency disorders (e.g., stuttering)Social (e.g., pragmatic) communication disordersUnspecified communication disordersAutism spectrum disorder (ASD)Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), specified and unspecifiedSpecific learning disordersMotor disordersDevelopmental coordination disordersStereotypic movement disorderTic disorders, specified and unspecifiedOther neurodevelopmental disorders, specified and unspecifiedPapers may also include studies of participants with neurodegenerative disorders that lead to a decline in intellectual functioning, including Alzheimer’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal dementia, corticobasal degeneration, Huntington’s disease, and progressive supranuclear palsy. The journal includes empirical, theoretical and review papers on a large variety of issues, populations, and domains, including but not limited to: diagnosis; incidence and prevalence; and educational, pharmacological, behavioral and cognitive behavioral, mindfulness, and psychosocial interventions across the life span. Animal models of basic research that inform the understanding and treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders are also welcomed. The journal is multidisciplinary and multi-theoretical, and encourages research from multiple specialties in the social sciences using quantitative and mixed-method research methodologies.
