The nature of ToM deficits is believed to be partially associated with preexisting deficits in other core cognitive domains of ADHD, such as EF, which are essential for making mental inferences, especially complex ones.

The methodological quality of the studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The meta-analytic measurement was estimated with the correlation coefficient as the outcome. Due to the presence of heterogeneity, a random-effects model was adopted. Independent meta-analyses were conducted for different EF subdomains and ADHD and healthy control groups.
