TI  - Variations in anxiety and depression as a function of ADHD subtypes defined by 
      DSM-IV: do subtype differences exist or not?
PG  - 27-37
AB  - Concerns have been raised about the ability of diagnostic criteria for 
      attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) to distinguish subtypes that are 
      clearly distinct from each other with regard to clinical correlates. One area of 
      concern is that research regarding differences in anxiety and depression as a 
      function of ADHD subtype has produced discrepant findings. This study was 
      designed to systematically evaluate whether the ADHD subtypes differ with regard 
      to level of internalizing symptoms. From a large pool of children referred to an 
      ADHD center based in a pediatric hospital, children were differentiated into 
      three groups: ADHD, Combined Type (ADHD/COM); ADHD, Inattentive Type (ADHD/I); 
      and a non-ADHD, comparison group (COMP). Parent- and child-report measures using 
      both dimensional and categorical methods were used to assess internalizing 
      symptoms. The results indicated that children with ADHD/COM and ADHD/I had 
      similar levels of anxiety and depression. Subtype differences related to 
      parent-reported depression were accounted for by group differences in level of 
      externalizing problems. The results were discussed with regard to their 
      implications for refining the criteria used to differentiate children with ADHD 
      into subtypes.
