I know how science works and I'd never claim that psychologists are stupid. But being smart does not mean you can't make stupid errors or just not use your intelligence for psychological reasons. Since Barkley lost his brother because of ADHD, I don't think it's impossible that he actually means that it impairs working memory, has no advantages, and does not impair intelligence. Not because he's too stupid to see the contradiction but because he doesn't want to. Then again, it would be quite a coincidence that whatever advantages ADHD has exactly cancel out the working memory issues. I just expected an academic to use precise language (there's nothing wrong with simplifying, but to me, this does not look simplified but wrong.)
