Abstract: This pilot study delves into investigating ADHD symptoms in school-aged children in Hyderabad, Telangana, with a focus on potential gender differences. ADHD, characterized by persistent inattention and/or hyperactivity/impulsivity, profoundly impacts various life domains. The study employed a sample of 22 students, the sample for the present study was selected based on specific criteria. Diagnostic Test of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (DT-ADHD) tool was administered for data collection, revealing noteworthy findings regarding inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity levels among boys and girls. The results suggest potential gender-based variations in ADHD symptom manifestation, warranting further research with diverse populations to validate and expand these insights.
