The study population included 74 children with ADHD+ASD, 46 with ASD, 84 with ADHD, and 29 TD children. The full-scale intellectual quotient, 5 indices, and 12 subtest scores of the K-WPPSI-IV were compared using analysis of covariance, adjusting for age. Correlations were analyzed between the K-WPPSI-IV indices and the symptom severity measures: Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS), ADHD Rating Scale (ARS), and Advanced Test of Attention (ATA) across the full population.Results Children with ADHD+ASD, ASD, and ADHD scored significantly lower than TD peers on the Working Memory Index (WMI; p&lt;0.001) and Processing Speed Index (PSI; p&lt;0.001). The ASD group showed significantly lower scores than the ADHD group in Vocabulary (p=0.001) and Comprehension (p&lt;0.001). CARS scores negatively correlated with the WMI, while ATA negatively correlated with the PSI.Conclusion Both ADHD and ASD are associated with relative weakness in processing speed and working memory. Furthermore, ASD is characterized by additional difficulties in verbal abilities. These findings highlight distinct and overlapping cognitive features across these disorders.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.30773\/pi.2025.0284","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,11]],"date-time":"2026-05-11T23:52:01Z","timestamp":1778543521000},"page":"613-623","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.30773\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Comparison
