Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore an ADHD tendency group among college students and toidentify any correlation between 400 college student’s ADHD tendencies and their levels ofplayfulness. The survey utilized the short version of Comprehensive Behavior Rating Scales and theAdult Playfulness Scale. First, the lower factors of ADHD which implied a significant impact onmanifested joy and imagination, sub-variables of playfulness, were carelessness, memory problem,hyperactivity, restlessness, and self-concept problems. The variables that affected spontaneity werehyperactivity, restlessness, impulsiveness, emotional instability and self-concept problems. Secondly, inthe classification of ADHD tendencies into groups, the following groups were found: a group with apossibility of slight hyperactivity and an impulsive tendency, a group with a possibility to display atendency toward ADHD in general, a potential group revealing relatively mild hyperactivity andrestlessness, a group with the possibility to experience problems related to carelessness, remembrance,and self-conception, and a group that showed almost no sign of an ADHD tendency. Finally, thegroup without an ADHD tendency scored highly on manifest joy, imagination and ingenuity whilethe group with possibility of slight hyperactivity and an impulsive tendency as well as the groupwith the possibility of a tendency toward ADHD in general both exhibited the highest spontaneitylevels. The result of this study will contribute to the development of group counseling program foruniversity students with a tendency toward ADHD.
