*p value <0.05.Only those variables were subjected to univariate logistic regression analysis which showed association with ADHD in the Chi-square test or in Mann-Whitney U-test. UV – Univariate; MV – Multivariate; RR – Relative risk, CI – Confidence interval; MAP – Maudsley addiction profile; ADHD – Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorders
