Perfectionism and its Connection to ADHD
A study with over 3,000 university-aged participants found that individuals with ADHD tend to have high levels of perfectionism but lower scores in areas such as personal standards and being orderly. This suggests that people with ADHD may have lower expectations for themselves due to past negative experiences. The study highlights the potential impact of ADHD symptoms during the transition to adulthood when external support structures are diminished.
