The inatten­ tive type predominates in pediatric populations, whereas the hyperactive­ impulsive and combined types are more prevalent in child psychiatric pop­ ulations. The ADHD types are associated with different clinical, comorbid, and prognostic courses. According to Faraone et al. (1998), children with the combined type have the highest rates of comorbid disruptive, anxiety, and depressive disorders. In comparison with children who have the combined type, children with the inattentive type have similar rates of comorbid anxi­ ety and depressive disorders but lower rates of disruptive disorders.
