[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 164384, member: 2423"] Based on every other test my kids have taken, I'm guessing that below 85 indicates a deficit (as in ADHD), not the other way around. One thing you should be aware of is that kids can score on questionnaires as if they have ADHD, but in reality another disorder makes them appear inattentive, impulsive or hyperactive. Anxiety, bipolar disorder, and Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) all fall into this category. Only a skilled clinician will take the time to thoroughly evaluate the child and provide a differential diagnosis. [/QUOTE]
