The Relationship Between ADHD Symptomatology and Financial Well-Being Among College Students.

Although there is research that indicates financial difficulties among adults with ADHD, little research has examined financial well-being among college students with ADHD. The present study explored the relationships between symptoms of ADHD and credit card and student loan debt, expected student loan debt, perceived financial well-being, worries about student loans, and financial strain behaviors among 612 college students at two public universities in different states. Results indicated that students with more symptoms of ADHD reported lower perceived financial well-being, but there was no relationship between symptomatology and credit card and student loan debt or expected student loan debt.
