Description:
In this 50 minute presentation, Stephen V. Faraone, PhD presents atypical cases of ADHD which can confound diagnosis in the clinical setting. Clinical guidance is given in clarifying how to diagnose ADHD with late onset beyond the DSM-5 age of 12, as well as individuals with both low and high IQ who may also have ADHD.

Learning Objectives:
After completing this activity, the reader should be better able to:
• Separate the symptoms of intellectual disability and low IQ from symptoms of ADHD in order to make an ADHD diagnosis.
• Identify significant impairments in high IQ that may lead to an ADHD diagnosis despite intelligence.
• Diagnose young adults with ADHD whose symptoms may have developed or become more severe at ages older than the DSM-5 criterion of age 12.

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
