“There are three types of lies: lies, damn lies, and statistics.” ~ Benjamin Disraeli. This famous quote highlights the power and potential pitfalls of using statistics to shape arguments. But when it comes to ADHD, it’s critical to understand the numbers. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, host and ADHD coach Jeff Copper (https://digcoaching.com) interviews Dr. Russell Ramsay of the University of Pennsylvania to make sense of ADHD statistics. They explore key questions about why ADHD diagnoses are on the rise and whether societal changes are pushing the trend. Dr. Ramsay shares what the changes in the DSM-5 mean as they relate to ADHD. If you’re confused by the statistics, this episode brings clarity and perspective. Listen and learn what the numbers really mean.
