In this study three groups of children, namely, children at risk for preschool ADHD, preschool children who have been diagnosed as having ADHD, and a control group and their parents were compared in terms of the children’s social and behavioral features as well as parenting styles and family functioning. It is expected that family dysfunction will be related to the child’s ADHD symptoms. In parents of preschool children with symptoms of ADHD, more depression, anxiety, and burnout should be observed, their coping skills will be less effective, and they will be perceiving less social support compared to parents of normal controls. It is also expected that in parents of preschool children with symptoms of ADHD, a more controlling and negative child rearing style will be observed compared to parents of normal controls. Parents of ADHD children will have lower acceptance towards their children, as well as having less perception of competence about their parenting. The social and familial outcomes of having a child with ADHD will be discussed in light of its effects on the family system.
