Hyperactives as young adults: school, employer, and self-rating scales obtained during ten-year follow-up evaluation.
A ten-year prospective follow-up of hyperactive adolescents and young adults indicates that they are rated as markedly inferior to normal controls by teachers but not by employers. On self-rating scales, they view themselves as inferior to controls on a personality test, but no different than controls on a psychopathology scale.
