Research Recap: ADHD Combined Diagnosis and Brain Imaging

Join Skye and Sarah for an in-depth chat about two papers in what might be called the opposite ends of the academic spectrum. In the first part, we will chat through an interesting (and perhaps controversial) paper looking at how an ADHD diagnosis can change over the year. Then we dive into one of our favourite topic, neuroscience, and chat through what it means to be able to see changes in brain structures in people with ADHD as well as your own brain imaging experience.Unconventional Organisation: https://www.unconventionalorganisation.com/The ADHD Academy: https://courses.unconventionalorganisation.com/the-adhd-academyGirls With Social and/or Attention Deficit Re-Examined in Young Adulthood: Prospective Study of Diagnostic Stability, Daily Life Functioning and Social Situationhttps://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10870547231158751A preliminary study of white matter correlates of a laboratory measure of attention and motor stability in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorderhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0022395623000651?via%3DihubP.S.

Research Recap: Perfectionism and Executive Functioning with ADHD

Welcome to our first research recap! Join us for our honest assessment and wide-ranging discussion of the latest in ADHD research. In this episode, we discuss how University students with ADHD can hold themselves to a relatively low standard of achievement despite being highly self-critical of their own performance. We examine whether a short intervention targeting executive dysfunction can improve workplace performance and satisfaction. And we look at the effectiveness of self-guided online modules for ADHD.Unconventional Organisation: https://www.unconventionalorganisation.com/The ADHD Academy: https://courses.unconventionalorganisation.com/the-adhd-academyLow standards yet disappointed: ADHD symptoms and experiential avoidance in college studentsBodalski, E.
