Yet this symptomatic presentation still remains to be assessed in remote population groups. OBJECTIVE: To explore the possibility of the existence of ADHD symptoms among settlement-dwelling indigenous children of the Karaj\u00e1 ethnic group in the Brazilian Amazon and to estimate the rate of ADHD symptoms among 7-16-year-olds. METHOD: All parents\/caretakers of 7-16-year olds from all (N=5) most populated indigenous groups were invited to participate, if they were worried about their children emotional\/behavioural problems. Fifty three parents spontaneously came for a psychiatric interview (DSM-IV criteria applied), individually conducted at the settlement's health post by a child psychiatrist. RESULTS: The estimated rate of ADHD symptoms in problematic indigenous children aged 7-16 years was 24.5% (95% CI: 13.6-35.4) since 13 out of 53 parents\/caretakers reported the classical triad of ADHD symptoms (inattentiveness, hyperactivity, impulsiveness). CONCLUSION: ADHD is a clinically relevant construct in the Karaj\u00e1 indigenous population, representing a major concern among parents\/caretakers of children and adolescents from this ethnic group.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s0004-282x2010000400012","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,8,18]],"date-time":"2010-08-18T21:24:35Z","timestamp":1282166675000},"page":"541-544","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Attention deficit\/hyperactivity disorder symptoms in indigenous children from the Brazilian Amazon"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"68","author":[{"given":"Paulo Verlaine Borges e","family":"Azev\u00eado","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"PUC-Goi\u00e1s;
