Sample ADHD Screening Report
This is an example of what your personalized report looks like. It is for illustration only and is based on fictional answers — not real responses.
4 of 6 responses met the screening threshold.
Executive Summary
This sample report illustrates an elevated ADHD-like pattern, especially around task initiation, sustained attention, and follow-through. This does not mean the person has ADHD, but the pattern may be worth discussing with a qualified healthcare professional if it significantly affects daily life.
This is a fictional example generated for illustration. Real reports are based on your own self-reported answers.
Your Screening Result
The user completed the ASRS v1.1 6-question screener. 4 of 6 responses met the screening threshold, which corresponds to an elevated screening result. A score of 4 or more out of 6 is considered a positive screen on the ASRS-6.
This is a screening tool, not a diagnostic instrument. It cannot confirm or rule out ADHD on its own.
Your ADHD-like Pattern Map
Based on your self-reported answers, here is how each area rated. These are ADHD-like traits, not a diagnosis.
Based on the supplemental answers, the most prominent areas were: - Task initiation — high - Sustained attention — high - Follow-through — high - Sleep / stress overlap — high
Organization and emotional regulation rated moderate, while restlessness and impulsivity rated lower. This is a profile often described as inattentive-type ADHD-like traits, though only a clinician can assess this properly.
How This May Show Up in Daily Life
The user indicated these patterns most affect work and home life. Common reports include struggling to start important tasks, losing focus during long meetings or reading, and leaving final details unfinished.
Self-reported impairment was significant, meaning these difficulties regularly interfere with daily responsibilities.
Possible Overlapping Factors
ADHD-like traits can overlap with several other factors. This user reported poor, irregular sleep and that attention difficulties get worse with stress.
Possible overlapping contributors include: - Chronic sleep deprivation - Anxiety or chronic stress - Burnout - Low mood or depression
These factors can mimic or worsen attention difficulties, which is why a full clinical evaluation considers the whole picture.
Personalized Strategies
For task initiation: - Use a 2-minute start rule — commit to just two minutes to lower the threshold for starting. - Break tasks into a single visible first action. - Create external accountability (a body double, a check-in message).
For sustained attention: - Use timed focus blocks (for example, 25 minutes on, 5 off). - Reduce open-loop distractions — close tabs and silence notifications during a block. - Work in a lower-friction environment when possible.
For follow-through: - Define what "done" looks like before you start. - Schedule a short final-details pass separately from the main work.
These are educational lifestyle strategies, not treatment instructions.
Questions to Bring to a Clinician
If you decide to speak with a qualified healthcare professional, consider bringing up: 1. Whether these patterns were present in childhood or adolescence. 2. How they affect work, relationships, and daily responsibilities. 3. Whether sleep, anxiety, depression, or stress may be contributing. 4. Whether a full ADHD evaluation would be appropriate for your situation.
