ABSTRACT
Background: lack of adequate screening tools for adult ADHD in Iran, we aimed to introduce factor structure of ASRS-V1.1 in Persian form. Method: Persian form of ASRS-V1.1 were filled in 240 university students aged 18-24 years, Cronbach’s alpha coefficient and factor analysis were performed. Results: Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was calculated 0.76 for ASRS. Factor analysis confirmed two factors: attention deficit and hyperactivity. Conclusion: Persian translation of ASRS-V1.1 has adequate internal consistency and two factors structure, in line with original manuscript.
