Social-Emotional Outcomes in Youth with ADHD: The Influence of Self-Compassion on Peer Rejection, Rejection Sensitivity, and Related Mental Health Outcomes

This work will examine whether and how attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) predicts peer rejection and rejection sensitivity compared to typically developing adolescents, how these respective relationships contribute to mental health outcomes, and how self-compassion might moderate this relationship. Hierarchical regression will be used to examine the path models.
