Neurodiversity and Thriving with ADHD

What we do:

Our goal is to better understand the personal experiences of people with ADHD and gain insight into how ADHD affects individuals throughout their life. In particular, how ADHD looks across different contexts or situations and occupations

How we do it:

We conduct literature reviews, interviews via Zoom, and surveys.

Our Goal:

Compiling these narratives may offer new insights into what is possible for individuals with ADHD and begin to reshape public perceptions of what factors are important for them to thrive with ADHD.

What research is like?

Currently, we meet once a week in person to discuss literature relevant to the topic of neurodiversity and ADHD, discuss any recently conducted interviews, and further develop the direction of our project.

Communicating our work

Right now, this project is very much exploratory. It may result in a book project, articles, and/or presentations in scholarly settings related to neurodiversity and ADHD. We plan to begin a more quantitative study of alignment in the workplace.
