Previous studies in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit disorder (ADHD/ADD) have shown impaired sleep quality with increased nocturnal motor activity. However, polysomnographic findings are not unequivocal. Up to now, in adults with ADHD, only 1 case-control polysomnographic study with small sample size has been performed. We investigated objective and subjective sleep quality in adultADHD, including an electroencephalogram spectral power analysis.
