Abstract

We examined whether co-occurring anxiety moderates the relation between ADHD symptoms and parent-child relationship difficulties. Results revealed that parents of children with elevated inattention and high anxiety reported low parenting confidence. In contrast, parents of children with poor attention but low levels of anxiety reported high parenting confidence.
