Abstrakt: Objective: The purpose of the study was to create a national profile of parental involvement for parents of children with ADHD in the United States. Method: Using the 2016 Parent and Family Involvement in Education Survey, parents of children with ADHD ( N = 1,600) were compared with other parents ( N = 11,923) on 32 distinct measures of parental involvement in education. Results: Parents of children with ADHD were more likely to invest more time in communications regarding school and behavior problems, teaching their child time management skills, checking and helping with their homework, whereas they were less likely to engage in athletic sports, attend class or school events, or visit the library. Conclusion: A more systematic approach to encourage and support parental involvement in education for children with ADHD is needed.
