Abstract
People with ADHD symptoms report problems like acting without forethought and having a reduced ability to regulate their emotions (Barkley & Benton, 2010). Such symptoms have an effect on social functioning. Results indicate that individuals with higher quality of social support have less ADHD symptoms and are less impulsive/emotionally labile.
