Episode 18: Mental Health: ADHD – Associated Features

When we think about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), we tend to think of three symptoms – inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. However, ADHD is a heterogeneous disorder that affects a very important system of cognitive processes called executive functions.
