Abstract

Recent influential approaches to this topic consider executive functions as a bridge between emotional
dysregulation and hyperactivity/attention related disorders. Specifically, the ability to self-regulate emotions is viewed as
a part of executive functions, which have a particular impact on attentional control. This study explored the relationships
between self-reported attention disorders and emotional dysregulation in a sample of 132 non-clinical high school
students (age: M = 18.6; SD = .71; 66% males). The research battery comprised four self-report measures which were
individually administered to the participants: Brown Attention-Deficit Disorder Scales (Brown ADD Scales), Behavior
Rating Inventory of Executive Function – Adult Version (BRIEF-A), Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), Toronto
Alexithymia Scale – 20 items (TAS). A series of regression analyses confirmed the stringent relation between the abilities
to identify, regulate, and express emotions and the core variables involved in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
(ADHD), especially in relation to impairments in attentive functioning. Results throw light on the importance of emotion
dysregulation in attention and executive control, suggesting the relevance of assessing the individual’s abilities to manage
affects to better conceptualize the disorder and plan interventions. Implications for research and practice are discussed
especially in the context of psychological development and protraction of the condition during adulthood.
