dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of this study is to investigate Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and other psychiatric symptoms of the parents of children with ADHD. Method: Mothers (n=34) and fathers (n=29) of 34 children with ADHD were included into the study group. Mothers (n=34) and fathers (n=31) of 34 children with no history of referral to a doctor due to previous psychological problems and for whom diagnoses of ADHD and Disruptive Behavior Disorder (DBD) according to DSM-IV were ruled out were assigned as the controls. The parents were given Symptom Check List (SCL-90-R) and Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Scale (ADHD-A). Results: Parents from the patient group were found to have significantly more ADHD and psychiatric symptoms compared to parents from the control group. Conclusion: In the evaluation and treatment process of children with ADHD, it would be beneficial to monitor their parents in terms of adult ADHD and related co-morbid psychiatric conditions. It is suggested that treating parents would benefit in the improvement of ADHD symptoms in children.en_US
