AB In  the  spectrum  and  continuum  of  developmental-behavioral  diagnoses,  attention-deficit/hyperactivity  disorder  (ADHD)  represents  a  dissociation  between  cognitive  abilities  and  the  neurobehavioral  domains  of  attention,  impulse  control,  and  motor  activity.  Individuals  with  ADHD  have  developmentally  inappropriate  levels  of  inattention  and/or  impulsivity/hyperactivity  (ie,  their  levels  of  attention  and  impulse  control/activity  are  discrepantly  delayed  or  dissociated  from  their  underlying  cognitive  abilities)  that  are  impairing  their  functioning  across  settings.
