NCT ID NCT06530758
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether the design of a common ADHD screening questionnaire (the ASRS) influences how people answer. Researchers wanted to see if shading and grouping certain answer choices made it easier for patients to guess which responses lead to a positive screen. 587 adults from a family medicine clinic took part. The goal was to find out if changing the form's format could improve screening accuracy.
