ADHD trait areas

This screener maps five ADHD trait areas so you can see how your pattern shows up across focus, energy, executive function, emotional regulation, and hyperfocus.

Inattention

Sustaining focus, managing distractions, and getting things done. We look at attention in different contexts—routine tasks vs high-interest activities—and at organization, planning, and follow-through in daily life.

Hyperactivity & Impulsivity

Your typical activity level, need for movement or stimulation, and how you manage impulses and emotional reactivity. We look at restlessness, pacing, and the balance between drive and regulation in everyday situations.

Emotional Regulation

How you experience and manage emotions: rejection sensitivity, frustration tolerance, and mood shifts. We look at the intensity of emotional responses and how easily feelings can change in daily life.

Executive Function

Planning, getting started, and following through: time awareness, procrastination, and task paralysis. We look at how you organize time, prioritize, and move from intention to action.

Hyperfocus

The ability to enter deep focus when something captures your interest. We look at flow states, absorption in tasks, and how interest drives sustained attention.

Research-Based

Our ADHD trait profile test draws on DSM-5-aligned criteria and adult ADHD research, including inattention, hyperactivity-impulsivity, executive function, emotional regulation, and hyperfocus dimensions.
