Abstract

The present study aims at investigating time perspective of adolescents who suffer from Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The primary hypothesis of the study was that academic performance and planning problems in the adolescents with ADHD are the result of the bias existing against the time perspective of these people. The students of junior high school to senior high schools of Isfahan in academic year 2013-14 comprised the statistical population of the study. Of this population, 60 students (30 girls and boys with ADHD recognized in counseling centers and 30 healthy girls and boys as the control group) were selected by convenience sampling. To collect the data, the time perspective questionnaires were used. Sampling methods included descriptive statistics and inferential analysis by logistic regression. The findings revealed that although the participants with ADHD had passed treatment courses like counseling and medication, they showed a meaningful statistical difference.
