dc.descriptionAttention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), the most prevalent childhood neurobehavioral disorder, is increasingly being identified in young children before they enter school. Identifying and treating ADHD symptoms in preschool-age children is important for mitigating the negative effects of this disorder on social-emotional development and school readiness. Most U.S. children with ADHD are treated by their primary care provider (PCP). This retrospective observational cohort study contributes to the limited literature on quality-of-care provided by PCPs for young children with ADHD and ADHD symptoms, and to the mixed literature on the contribution of sociodemographic disparities to quality gaps in ADHD management, including under-treatment, over-treatment and mistreatment. These quality gaps can lead to life-long morbidity on one hand or unnecessary medical treatments on the other.
