SPECIFIC CULTURE, AGE, GENDER FEATURES
ADHD is known to occur in various cultures, with variations in reported prevalence among Western countries probably arising from different diagnostic practices than from differences in clinical presentation

In early childhood, it may be difficult to distinguish symptoms of ADHD from age-appropriate behaviors in active children (e.g., running around or being noisy)
Inattention in the classroom may also occur when children with high intelligence are placed in academically understimulating environments.
