What is it about?

Although there is research that indicates financial difficulties among adults with ADHD, little research has examined financial well-being among college students with ADHD. This study explored the relationships between symptoms of ADHD and credit card and student loan debt, expected student loan debt, perceived financial well-being, worries about student loans, and financial strain behaviors among college students. Students with more symptoms of ADHD reported lower financial well-being, but there was no relationship between ADHD symptoms and credit card and student loan debt or expected student loan debt.
