Longitudinal follow-up of Youth with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder identified in Community Settings: Examining Health Status, Correlates, and Effects associated with treatment for ADHD
OMB approves data collection for waves 4 and 5 of this study. Due to concerns about diminishing response rates over time, OMB requires a continuing assessment of the potential for nonresponse bias over time and a commitment to systematically present the nonresponse bias analysis and its implications whenever the results of any of the waves are presented.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is one of the most common neurobehavioral disorders of childhood, and is characterized by inattention, impulsivity/hyperactivity or both, such that daily functioning is compromised in multiple settings (DSM-IV-TR, 2000 diagnostic criteria; APA, 2000). ADHD affects about 3-7% of school age children with recent estimates suggesting higher rates in some socio-demographic groups. CDC estimates that roughly 2.5 million children were taking medications to treat ADHD in 2003, although substantial disparities exist in rates of both parent-reported diagnosis and treatment across US states (MMWR, 2005). ADHD often persists into adolescence and can affect behavior and functioning even in adults. However, little is known about the disorder's developmental trajectory from non-clinical samples of youth identified and treated for ADHD through usual community care.
The proposed project would follow up the participants for two additional annual assessments, i.e., wave 4 and 5, following the participants, who were initially recruited in elementary school, into older adolescence towards young adulthood. Funding will be provided to the University of South Carolina, where sufficient numbers of participants were able to be retained in the first waves of follow-up data collection. The additional waves for PLAY study follow-up will allow the CDC to address the imminent public health concerns around ADHD diagnosis and treatment and better understand and promote the health status of youth with ADHD particularly in older adolescents.

Data collection for Wave 4 and 5 constitutes a program change due to the revision of the data collection procedures for the youth participants who have reached high school age.
The burden on the individual youth participant does not change because the People In My Life questionnaire used for the previous protocol does not need to be repeated annually and thus will not be part of Wave 4 and 5. This decreases the burden by 15 minutes per child. The Dating Violence Survey as well as the additional items on the Health Risk Behavior Survey add 15 minutes and thus result in the same overall burden.
