Prevalence Of Attention-Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder: A Systematic Review And Meta-Analysis, Rae Thomas, Sharon Sanders, Jenny Doust, Elaine Beller, Paul Glasziou
Rae Thomas
Overdiagnosis and underdiagnosis of attention-deficit/hyperactivity abstract disorder (ADHD) are widely debated, fueled by variations in prevalence estimates across countries, time, and broadening diagnostic criteria. We conducted a meta-analysis to: establish a benchmark pooled prevalence for ADHD; examine whether estimates have increased with publication of different editions of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM); and explore the effect of study features on prevalence. METHODS: Medline, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Embase, and Web of Science were searched for studies with point prevalence estimates of ADHD. We included studies of children that used the diagnostic criteria from DSM-III, DSM-III-R and DSM-IV in …
