What do we know about ADHD in college students: Psychological and Emotional Functioning

Studies examining psychological and emotional functioning in college students with ADHD have yielded somewhat inconsistent findings.
One researcher reported that students with ADHD seen at a university counseling center did not differ in their level of psychological distress from students seen for career concerns.
Other findings suggest that college students with ADHD experience greater psychological and emotional difficulties than other students, specifically depressive symptoms.
Overall, research points in the direction that students with ADHD experience greater emotional distress and psychological difficulties than other students, but more substantial research is still required in this area.
