TL;DR: The results suggest the need to identify alternative or adjunctive adolescent-focused approaches to substance abuse prevention and treatment for boys and girls with ADHD, especially given their increased risk for use and abuse of multiple substances that is not improved with stimulant medication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lily Hechtman,James M. Swanson,Margaret H. Sibley,Annamarie Stehli,Elizabeth B. Owens,John T. Mitchell,L. Eugene Arnold,Brooke S.G. Molina,Stephen P. Hinshaw,Peter S. Jensen,Howard Abikoff,Guillermo Perez Algorta,Andrea L. Howard,Betsy Hoza,Joy Etcovitch,Sylviane Houssais,Kimberley D. Lakes,J. Quyen Nichols +17 more
TL;DR: Adult functioning after childhood ADHD varies by domain and is generally worse when ADHD symptoms persist, so it is important to identify factors and interventions that promote better functional outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

James M. Swanson,L. Eugene Arnold,Brooke S.G. Molina,Margaret H. Sibley,Lily Hechtman,Stephen P. Hinshaw,Howard Abikoff,Annamarie Stehli,Elizabeth B. Owens,John T. Mitchell,Quyen Nichols,Andrea L.

TL;DR: In the MTA follow-up into adulthood, the ADHD group showed symptom persistence compared to local norms from the LNCG, and within naturalistic subgroups of ADHD cases, extended use of medication was associated with suppression of adult height but not with reduction of symptom severity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Defining ADHD symptom persistence in adulthood: optimizing sensitivity and specificity
Margaret H. Sibley,James M. Swanson,L. Eugene Arnold,Lily Hechtman,Elizabeth B. Owens,Annamarie Stehli,Howard Abikoff,Stephen P. Hinshaw,Brooke S.G. Molina,John T. Mitchell,Peter S. Jensen,Andrea L. Howard,Kimberley D. Lakes,William E. Pelham +13 more
TL;DR: The interview format optimizes young adult self-reporting when parent reports are not available, and the combination of parent and self-reports from rating scales, using an 'or' rule and a NB threshold optimized the balance between sensitivity and specificity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Childhood risk factors for early-onset drinking.
TL;DR: Initiation of alcohol use by age 14 reflects childhood psychosocial proneness to engage in problem behavior as measured by Problem Behavior Theory and having a family environment conducive to alcohol use.
