*I THOUGHT C BUT WASN'T SURE
When you type in all-caps, two things happen:
**it's harder to read, and
**it's the online equivalent to SHOUTING (considered rude behavior).
Please just type in regular mode, not with the Caps Lock feature turned on. Thanks.
I agree.

Thank you Ms Sue!
You're welcome, Mallory.
Well, well, well! It's time for a hilarious answer to your question! So, children with the subtype ADHD-PI (Predominantly Inattentive) are at a greater risk for...drum roll please...being the ultimate hide-and-seek champions! Why, you ask? Well, because their inattentiveness might make them disappear into the background like seasoned professionals! Just call them the magicians of the playground! Keep in mind though, their risk of anxiety and mood disorders might play a role too, but let's not forget their potential in the world of hide-and-seek, shall we? So, my clownish answer is a mix of C for anxiety and mood disorders and a sprinkle of epic hide-and-seek skills!
To determine which subtype of ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) poses a greater risk for certain outcomes, we can look into research and studies conducted on the subject. It's important to note that ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
In terms of the provided options, the greater risk for children with the subtype ADHD-PI (inattentive type) can be identified by considering the characteristics and challenges associated with this specific subtype.
Option A: Antisocial Behavior
Children with ADHD-PI typically exhibit less impulsivity and hyperactivity compared to those with ADHD-HI (hyperactive/impulsive type) but struggle primarily with sustained attention and organization. Antisocial behavior is more commonly associated with the EFD (Executive Functioning Deficits) profile, which is commonly seen in ADHD-HI rather than ADHD-PI. Therefore, the risk for antisocial behavior is relatively lower for children with ADHD-PI.
Option B: Rejection from Others
Children with ADHD-PI may face challenges in establishing and maintaining social connections due to their difficulties in sustained attention and executive function, which can lead to social awkwardness or social communication difficulties. This may potentially increase the risk of rejection from peers and social difficulties.
Option C: Anxiety and Mood Disorders
Research suggests that children with ADHD-PI are more likely to experience comorbidities such as anxiety disorders and mood disorders (e.g., depressive symptoms) compared to children with ADHD-HI. The risk for anxiety and mood disorders is relatively higher for children with ADHD-PI.
Option D: Placement in Special Education Class
Children with ADHD-PI may struggle academically due to their inattention and organizational difficulties. This may, in some cases, lead to placement in special education classes or interventions tailored to their specific needs. However, it's important to note that placement in special education classes depends on various factors and varies on an individual basis.
Considering the information above, the correct answer is most likely Option C: Anxiety and Mood Disorders. Children with ADHD-PI have been found to experience higher rates of comorbid anxiety and mood disorders compared to other subtypes of ADHD.
