dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of this descriptive study was to explore the attitudes of adult psychiatrists toward the diagnosis of adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Material and Method: A questionnaire was mailed to all participants. The percentage of adults diagnosed with ADHD in the largest and oldest psychiatry hospital in Turkey within a year was calculated from hospital records. Results: Half of the participants displayed negative attitudes toward psychostimulants: 40% of participants reported that prescribing stimulants was a chore, 40% reported a fear of abuse, and 40% reported prescribing a non-stimulant agent. A majority of participants were unclear on the prevalence of ADHD. Records from the general psychiatry outpatient setting revealed only four patients (0.02%) diagnosed with adult ADHD. Conclusion: The results reflect an urgent need for education of psychiatrists about adult ADHD diagnosis and treatment.en_US
