Objective:To investigate the characteristic of social ability in children and adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and its relationship with core symptoms, emotional and behavioral problems.Methods:Fifty-nine children with ADHD aged 6-13 for outpatient department from June 2019 to June 2021 were selected as the ADHD group, and 62 normal children matched in age and sex were recruited as the typical development group(TD group). The social responsiveness scale (SRS), SNAP-Ⅳ rating scale and strengths and difficulties questionnaire (SDQ) were used to evaluate the social ability, core symptoms and emotional and behavioral problems of the subjects.SPSS 26.0 was used for statistical analysis.Non parametric test was used to compare and analyze the differences in social ability, emotional and behavioral problems between the two groups.Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between social ability and core symptoms, emotional and behavioral problems of ADHD group.Generalized linear regression was used to analyze the impact of gender, age, IQ, core symptoms, emotional and behavioral problems of ADHD group on social ability.Results:In the ADHD group, the total score of SRS (65(42, 83)), social perception (10 (8, 13)), social cognition (13 (9, 19)), social communication (19 (11, 29)), and autism like behavior (9 (5, 14)) were significantly higher than those of TD group(38 (27.5, 59.5), 7 (4, 12.5), 8 (6, 15), 12 (6.5, 20), 4 (2, 11)) ( Z=-2.97, -2.75, -2.41, -3.01, -2.64, all P<0.05) .The total score of SDQ difficulty, influence factors, mood, hyperactivity, conduct and peer interaction were significantly higher than those of TD group ( Z=-5.80, -6.89, -2.82, -8.59, -2.52, -3.81, all P<0.05). The total score of SRS and the scores of each subscale in ADHD group were positively correlated with the total score of SNAP -Ⅳ and the scores of each subscale ( r=0.33-0.71, all P<0.05). The total score of SRS and the score of social communication scale were positively correlated with the total score of SDQ difficulty, influencing factors, emotion, hyperactivity, conduct and peer interaction subscale ( r=0.29-0.65, all P<0.05). Social perception was positively correlated with the total score of difficulty, hyperactivity and the scores of peer interaction subscale ( r=0.56, 0.32, 0.45, all P<0.05). The scores of social cognition and autism like behavior subscale were positively correlated with the total scores of difficulty, influencing factors, emotion and peer interaction subscale ( r=0.27-0.55, all P<0.05). The scores of social motivation subscale were positively correlated with the total scores of difficulty, emotion, hyperactivity, conduct and peer interaction subscale ( r=0.29-0.55, all P<0.05). The total score of SRS and the scores of each subscale were negatively correlated with the scores of prosocial behavior subscale ( r=-0.63--0.49, all P<0.05). The total score of SRS was positively affected by gender, age, opposites and disobedience, emotion, hyperactivity and peer interaction ( B=0.05-0.23, all P<0.05), and negatively affected by the prosocial behavior subscale ( B=-0.07, P<0.05). Conclusion:ADHD children often have obvious social ability defects, which are clearly related to core symptoms, emotional and behavioral problems.The risk factors are opposition and disobedience, emotions and peer relationships, and the protective factor is prosocial behaviors.

Objective:To study the distribution and related factors of aggressive behavior among school aged children in Nanjing.Methods:Totally 4678 primary school students in Nanjing were sampled by cluster random sampling in this study.The General questionnaire and Achenbach's child Behavior Checklist were used to investi gate the general situation and aggressive behavior.Results:The rate of aggressive behavior of school-age children in Nanjing was 3.6 ％ (167/4678).Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that democratic parenting style [other parenting styles (OR =1.94,95％ CI =1.10-3.42),mixed parenting style(OR =1.96,95％ CI =1.35-2.85)],and genetic screening before birth (OR =0.71,95％ CI =0.52-0.99) were protective factors for children's aggressive behavior.The factor figures of aggressive behavior were positively correlated with that of oth er behavior problems in Pearson correlation analysis (r =0.52-0.80,Ps ＜0.01).Conclusion:About 3.6％ of the school aged children in Nanjing have aggressive behavior.It is more likely to have aggressive behaviors for children who is in other parenting styles except the democratic style and never have the genetic screening before birth.And children who with aggressive behavior may co-occur with other behavior problems.

Objective:To explore the differences between impaired perspective-taking and executive function in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD).Methods:From January 2019 to December 2020, according to DSM-5 diagnostic criteria, thirty-two cases of ADHD children aged 6 to 16(ADHD group) and twenty-six cases of typical development children and adolescents matched with age and intelligence (TD Group) were included. The response time and accuracy rate in dilemma stage and probe stage to self-oriented, maternal perspective-taking and other perspective-taking were measured using perspective-shifting task, and the executive function was evaluated by the behavior rating inventory of executive function (BRIEF). Repeated measurement analysis of variance was used to compare the difference of response time and accuracy rate between the two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between the perspective-taking behavior characteristics and the BRIEF total score and subscale scores of ADHD group.Results:The total score and subscale scores of BRIEF scale in ADHD group were significantly higher than those in TD group (all P<0.01). The interaction between group and task type was significant during the task dilemma stage of perspective-shifting task ( F(2, 106)=4.365, P<0.05). Simple effect analysis showed that in other-perspective-taking task, the response time of ADHD group ((2 305.48±464.27)ms) was significantly longer than that of TD group ((1 971.13±462.95)ms) and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.870, P<0.01). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the response time of ADHD group to other perspective-taking in dilemma stage was positively correlated with working memory, organization and inhibition index in EF ( r=0.401, 0.432, 0.342, all P<0.01). Conclusion:The ability of the perspective taking is closely related to impaired executive function, which seem to share a common neuropsychological basis.
