Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in Adults: Use of Eye-Tracker to Detect Attention Deficits (360G-Wellcome-202146_Z_16_Z)
Current diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in adults is by subjective measures. Our project examines the value of diagnosis of adult ADHD by objective means through the use of an eye-tracking device. Therefore our proposed goals are: 1. To find out the prevalence of ADHD using subjective tests in those adults who attend the mental health services in Sligo/Leitrim County, Republic of Ireland2. To investigate the use of an objective test in the diagnosis of ADHD 3. To explore the use of the objective test to distinguish ADHD from its associated comorbid conditions. 4. The results will be disseminated through peer-review publications and at international and national conferences, but most importantly will lead to further studies in which interventions will be tested for their potential to enhance care, and reduce the levels of educational and employments dysfunction of people with adult ADHD symptomatology.
