Research Recap: Perfectionism and Executive Functioning with ADHD

Welcome to our first research recap! Join us for our honest assessment and wide-ranging discussion of the latest in ADHD research. In this episode, we discuss how University students with ADHD can hold themselves to a relatively low standard of achievement despite being highly self-critical of their own performance. We examine whether a short intervention targeting executive dysfunction can improve workplace performance and satisfaction. And we look at the effectiveness of self-guided online modules for ADHD.Unconventional Organisation: https://www.unconventionalorganisation.com/The ADHD Academy: https://courses.unconventionalorganisation.com/the-adhd-academyLow standards yet disappointed: ADHD symptoms and experiential avoidance in college studentsBodalski, E.
