[Facial emotion recognition in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder].

Introduction: There are difficulties in relationships that are attributed to a commitment in facial emotions recognition skills in subjects with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The studies carried out did not always take into account the nature of the stimulus selected in pediatrics, which is important because the familiarity in faces, in terms of their physiognomic characteristics, makes it easier the recognition of the expressions.

Aim: To identify the profile of recognition of emotions in pediatric subjects with ADHD, using as a stimulus photos of boys and girls.
