There is, however, a wide variety in estimates. The prevalence of ADHD in youth has never been examined in France. Method: Starting with 18 million telephone numbers, 7,912 numbers are randomly selected. Among the 4,186 eligible families, 1,012 (24.2%) are successfully recruited. A telephone interview is administered to all families about a child in the 6 to 12 age range. It covered family living situation, school performance, symptoms of ADHD, conduct disorder (CD), and oppositional-defiant disorder (ODD), and other features of ADHD. Results: The prevalence of ADHD in France is between 3.5% and 5.6%. The population prevalence of treatment for ADHD is 3.5%. ADHD youth are more likely to be men than women, and, compared to non-ADHD children, ADHD children are more likely to have CD and ODD. Having ADHD is associated with a family history of the disorder. The ADHD youth are more likely to have had learning difficulties, to have repeated a grade, and to be functioning academically below grade level. Conclusions: The epidemiology of ADHD in French children is similar to the epidemiology of ADHD in other countries. The disorder occurs in between 3.5% to 5.6% of youth and is more common among boys than among girls. The authors replicate the well-known association of ADHD with CD, ODD, and indices of school failure. The impact of ADHD symptoms on school performance highlights the importance of screening for such symptoms in schools.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1087054710372491","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,8,2]],"date-time":"2010-08-02T22:31:59Z","timestamp":1280788319000},"page":"516-524","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":125,"title":["Prevalence of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Associated Features Among Children in France"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Michel","family":"Lecendreux","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Robert Debr\u00e9 Hospital, Paris VII University, Paris, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric","family":"Konofal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Robert Debr\u00e9 Hospital, Paris VII University, Paris, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stephen V.","family":"Faraone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"SUNY Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, New York, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,8,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1087054710372491","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1176\/ajp.150.11.1737"},{"key":"bibr2-1087054710372491","volume-title":"ADHD in Adults: What the Science Says","author":"Barkley R.
