Abstract
Childhood maltreatment may predict lowered effects on social competence in adulthood. In a longitudinal sample of women with/without childhood ADHD, we found associations between emotional maltreatment (abuse and neglect) in childhood and lower rates of adult social competence (initiation of relationships, personal information disclosure, conflict management, and assertion of displeasure).
