Comorbidity/Overlapping Between ADHD and PTSD in Relation to IQ Among Children of Traumatized/Non-Traumatized Parents

Abstract

Concerns are raised about how ADHD and PTSD symptoms in a child are to be interpreted. Some overlapping exists between the two syndromes, but further studies should determine whether true comorbidity exists between ADHD and PTSD symptoms to better understand how to correctly diagnose and treat refugee children with TP.
