Assesment for screening students with ADHD symptoms was conducted for 1,488 freshman at February(Time 1). Based on a survey of ADHD screening scale, students reported clinical level of ADHD symptoms were categorized into ADHD group. Then, students who matched with the ADHD group on college and sex were allocated to the normal control group. After 10 months later(Time 2), Students completed a web-based survey that assessed adjustment in multiple domains. The results showed that self-reported ADHD symptoms at Time 1 were correlated with high levels of depressive symptoms, anger-out, anger-in, & low levels of GPA at Time 2. Then, ADHD group was splitted into two groups and compared with control group on adaptation indices using ANOVA; one is ‘T1 & T2 ADHD group’ whose participants reported high levels of ADHD symptoms at both Time 1 and 2, the other is ‘T1 only ADHD group’ whose participants showed ADHD symptoms only at Time 1 and not Time 2.
