Abstract

Abstract: Through the epidemiological survey, this paper discusses the different subtype ADHD children in terms of their emotion, behavior and social functions. 263 high-risk children, who are selected from a large sample of 4500 7-10 years old children using SDQ (Strengths and Difficul-ties Questionnaire), have been clinically assessed with K-SADS-PL scale and DSM-Ⅳdiagnostic criteria, and 119 of them are diagnosed with ADHD. The male and female ratio of the children diagnosed with ADHD is approximately 2.22:1, which means significance gender difference. The mixed ADHD children have a significantly higher score in hyperactivity than children with atten-tion deficit; however, ADHD children have a significantly lower score in social function than children with attention deficit and hyperactivity. 7 years old ADHD children show significantly less hyperactivity than 8 and 9 years old ADHD children. ADHD comorbidity rate is 12.6% and 43.2 percent of ADHD children have learning difficulties.
