Abstract
Using the E-Risk Study, we found that children with increased ADHD symptoms were consistently at increased risk of becoming socially isolated later in childhood, over and above stable characteristics. These longitudinal associations were evident for hyperactive children in school, as observed by teachers, but not by mothers at home.
