Overview

ADHD may be classified according to the DSM-V criteria in three subgroups: predominantly inattentive type, predominantly hyperactive-impulsive type, and combined type. ADHD has at times been classified as a neurological disorder based on MRI imaging of the pre-frontal cortex, and also as a neurobehavioral disorder associated with hyperkinesis and conduct disorder.

Classification

Classification Based on DSM V Criteria===[1]

  1. ADHD, Combined Type: if both criteria 1A and 1B are met for the past 6 months
  2. ADHD Predominantly Inattentive Type: if criterion 1A is met but criterion 1B is not met for the past six months
  3. ADHD, Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Type: if Criterion 1B is met but Criterion 1A is not met for the past six months.; consequently these delayed attributes are considered an impairment.
