How is the result calculated?

This uses the original ASRS v1.1 counting method: items 1–3 count responses at or above “sometimes”; items 4–6 count responses at or above “often”. These response boxes have grey shading.

The result is the number of responses reaching these thresholds, from 0 to 6. Four or more indicate a need for further investigation. This is not an individual probability, a severity rating or confirmation of ADHD.

Which Greek wording is used?

The Greek wording of the six questions is provided by the practice. It is not represented here as a documented, validated Greek translation of the ASRS. The result is therefore indicative and should be discussed within a comprehensive clinical assessment.

Frequently asked questions

Does a result of 4 or more mean I have ADHD?

No. It indicates that further investigation is appropriate. The result is not a diagnosis and cannot, by itself, support a medication decision.

Does a result below 4 rule out ADHD?

No. If difficulties persist and affect your life, you can seek a clinical assessment regardless of the result.

Are my answers stored or sent?

No. Calculation takes place in the page you have opened. No name or email is requested, answers are not stored, and they are not sent to the practice. You make contact only if you choose it.
