Do you prefer ‘a person with ADHD’ or ‘an ADHDer’?

If you have ADHD (and you are 18+ years), we would like to know what you think as part of our research on disability language preferences. To have your say, you can complete a 10 – 15 minute survey deakin.au/4iqPuOi

🎉 New paper: A scoping review on #ADHD and puberty, which is the first comprehensive overview of quant literature in this area. doi.org/10.1016/j.cp...

Our #neurodiverse team ( #neurodivergent + neurotypical researchers) also worked hard to avoid stigmatising language.
