One hundred and twenty children between 6 and 18 years old who consecutively admitted to Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Department of Behcet Uz Child Diseases Hospital were screened for the diagnosis of ADHD through Turkish version of (Gökler et al. 2004) Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Aged Children: Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL) for DSM-IV (Kaufman et al. 1997) by a senior child and adolescent psychiatrist (D.S). The K-SADS-PL is a semi-structured psychiatric interview designed to assess psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents according to DSM-IV criteria. Our inclusion criteria for children were: (1) children of both genders between the ages of 6 and 18, (2) children with ADHD according to diagnostic criteria, (3) written consent from patients’ mothers. The exclusion criteria for the children were the diagnoses of mental retardation, autism spectrum disorders, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (n = 20).

The K-SADS may be used to interview both adolescents and parents and is available in both an epidemiologic version (K-SADS-E) that obtains lifetime symptoms and associated diagnoses and a present episode version (K-SADS-P) for current symptoms and diagnoses.

The K-SADS-PL (Kaufman, Birmaher, Brent, Rao, & Ryan, 1996) is a semi-structured diagnostic interview that is widely used and provides a reliable and valid measurement of DSM-IV-TR diagnoses in children and adolescents (Kaufman et al., 1997). Parents and adolescents completed the K-SADS-PL. Interviews were conducted and scored by one of six trained masters- or postdoctoral-degree level clinical psychology trainees. As part of their training, trainees were required to rate training audiotapes, observe and rate live interviews, and administer the K-SADS-PL while being observed. Upon completing this training, all interviews were audiotaped and 10% were randomly selected and rated for reliability. Kappa coefficients reflected strong agreement for major depressive and depressive NOS disorders (kappa = .89–1.0), anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorders (kappa= .92–1.0), disruptive behavior and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorders (Kappa = 1.0), and substance use disorders (kappa = .79–1.0). There was fair agreement for dysthymia and bipolar disorders (kappa = .48–.65, respectively).
