Abstract in brief

  • The study investigates how different ADHD symptoms, especially hyperactivity-impulsivity and issues with executive functioning like time management and organization, impact adults’ job outcomes such as income, warnings, boredom, and satisfaction with coworkers and supervisors.
  • Higher levels of hyperactivity-impulsivity and poor time management were linked to worse occupational outcomes, including lower income, more warnings, increased boredom, and lower satisfaction at work.
  • Executive functioning difficulties mainly increased risks across most outcomes, while inattention specifically was related to more warnings and lower coworker satisfaction, highlighting the different impacts of ADHD symptom dimensions on workplace success.]
