Objective: To test explanations for the underrecognition of female ADHD by examining differences in adult ratings of boys and girls matched for levels of directly observed ADHD behaviors. Method: In a secondary analysis of a population-based sample, 3- to 4-year-olds ( n = 153, 79 male) and 8- to 9-year-olds ( n = 144, 75 male) were grouped according to levels of directly observed ADHD behaviors (low/moderate/high). Groups were then compared with parent/teacher ADHD ratings. Results: There were no sex differences in levels of directly observed ADHD behaviors within groups. For preschoolers, parents’ ratings of males, but not females, significantly increased across groups—mirroring levels of observed behaviors. For older children, both parent and teacher mean ratings were significantly higher for males than females across groups. Conclusion: Identified differences in adult ratings of males and females matched for directly observed behaviors may contribute to understanding the substantial ADHD underrecognition in females.

Students from 6 to 18 years of age who had been referred for clinical assistance for school problems responded to questions related to their school performances, attitudes, and behavior. Their parents and teachers responded to comparable questions. The findings indicate that the student reports were consistently more positive than those of their parents, and the parents were consistently more positive than the students’ teachers. The students also viewed their school achievement more favorably than was indicated by their standardized test scores and school grades. These discrepancies have both theoretical and practical heuristic implications.
