Theoretical Introduction
A marked increase of ADHD diagnostics in internationally adopted children it’s been observed (Bimmel et al. 1990; Verrier, 2003), and this incidence seems to be higher among children adopted from Eastern Europe countries (Lindblad et al., 2010; Gunnar & Van Dulmen, 2007).
In International Adoption, there are several risk factors which can favor the existence of Attachment Disorders and these disorders seem to be related to the ADHDsymptomatology. (Franc et al., 2009; Niederhofer, 2009; Erdman, 1998).
![Page 10: Abrines Sccr2010](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54b573da4a79590f2c8b46f9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Theoretical Introduction
Parenting styles are related with the ADHD symptomatology and the attachment disorders (Finzi-Dottan, Manor, & Tyano, 2006; Öngel, 2006).
The existence of pre-adoptive and post-adoptive factors, which favor the appearance of ADHD-like symptoms, it’s been observed (Bimmel et al., 2003). These symptoms can lead to misdiagnosis of ADHD and can be followed by an inappropriate treatment.

o Assess the attachment pattern according to:1. Coherence
2. Reflective functioning
3. Evidence of secure base
4. Evidence of self esteem
5. Peer relations
6. Sibling relations
7. Anxieties and defense

Procedure
1. Contact the Pediatric Service of the Hospital Sant Joan de Déu, specialized in international adoption.
2. Select the sample, according to the age.
3. Invite the families to participate

Overprotection correlates with:• Hyperactivity. (Pearson’s r = .31; p: 0,05)
• Attention problems. (Pearson’s r = .37; p: 0.01)
Rejection correlates with:• Attention problems. (Pearson’s r = .31; 0.05)
An Insecure attachment is related with more rejective parents (p: 0.04):
