= .34-.37), and the ED-inclusive groups contained higher proportions of female participants (60-68%) than the traditional ADHD symptom group did (52%). Thus, substituting ED produced similarly sized but only partially overlapping symptom-threshold groups. These findings do not establish improved diagnostic accuracy or support a particular revision to ADHD criteria; rather, they demonstrate that substituting ED for traditional hyperactivity-impulsivity changes who meets the symptom threshold while leaving the overall proportion classified largely unchanged.
