Researchers at The University of Queensland are seeking volunteers to participate in a study exploring the lived experiences of women diagnosed with ADHD in adulthood.

What is involved:

  • Potential participants can register their interest via the link below.
  • A researcher will contact you to provide additional information and invite you to schedule a telephone call where we will answer all of your questions.
  • If you choose to participate, you will then complete an online questionnaire (~15 minutes) and a video-recorded interview (~45-60 minutes).

What is the purpose of this study?

This research is exploring the experiences of women who received a diagnosis of ADHD in adulthood. Previous research has tended to focus on children and males with ADHD, and the ways in which ADHD impacts women are not well understood. As such, this research is interested in contributing to a more thorough understanding how a diagnosis of ADHD in adulthood may impact on women.

Eligibility 

Women who received a diagnosis of ADHD in adulthood (i.e., after the age of 18 years).
