It's a major component of ADHD. Not the only component. It is probably the most detrimental component to life stability though. I think it's fair to put it in the spotlight.
- yunohn 4y agoThis study is about ADHD/ASD and its relation to internalising problems. Impulse control can be an aspect of the disorders, but that isn’t the topic at hand; nor does it make sense to directly compare to “criminal behavior” and other negative traits randomly.

- jesuscript 4y agoSo do research studies.

- krustyburger 4y agoYes, and I’m sure according to phrenologists the Venn diagram of criminals and people with unusual head shapes shared an enormous and obvious trait. And the same sort of thinking has led to horrible injustice around the world when applied toward other human traits. Caution is advisable when drawing glib connections between criminality and really anything else at all.
