ADHD Specific Assessment 

ADHD Specific Assessment 

Objective

The objective of an ADHD assessment conducted by a Licensed Educational Psychologist is to gather comprehensive information about an individual's functioning and behaviors related to Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. Here are the key objectives:


1. Diagnostic Clarification: Determine whether the individual meets diagnostic criteria for ADHD based on standardized diagnostic criteria (e.g., DSM-5).
Identify Symptoms and Severity: Assess the presence, frequency, and severity of symptoms of ADHD, including inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.


2. Rule Out Other Conditions: Differentiate ADHD from other conditions that may present with similar symptoms, such as learning disabilities, anxiety disorders, or mood disorders.


3. Understand Functional Impairments: Evaluate how ADHD symptoms impact the individual's functioning across various settings, including home, school, and social environments.


4. Assess Co-occurring Conditions: Identify any co-occurring conditions that may accompany ADHD, such as learning disabilities, emotional or behavioral disorders, or executive functioning deficits.


5. Recommend Interventions and Support Strategies: Provide recommendations for interventions, accommodations, and strategies to address ADHD symptoms and support academic, social, and behavioral functioning.

Overall, the ADHD assessment aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the individual's ADHD symptoms, functional impairments, and related factors to guide intervention planning and promote academic and social success.
