Abstract

We examined resilience's role in moderating ADHD symptom severity and Quality of Life (QoL) in 4,396 emerging adults (73% female; 72% White). Inattentive symptoms had strong negative associations with QoL (rs = -.18 to -.29); however, higher resilience through greater family coherence buffered this effect, highlighting resilience's protective abilities.
