•    Some hyperactive-impulsive or inattentive symptoms that cause impairment were present before age 7 years.

•    Some impairment from the symptoms is present in two or more settings (e.g., at school [or work] and at home).

•    There must be clear evidence of clinically significant impairment in social, academic, or occupational functioning.

•    The symptoms do not occur exclusively during the course of a pervasive developmental disorder, schizophrenia, or other psychotic disorder and are not better accounted for by another mental disorder(e.g., mood disorder, anxiety disorder, dissociative disorder, or a personality disorder).
