Abstract

Purpose: Interpersonal relationship disorders in adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can be associated with the impairment of non-verbal communication. The purpose of our study was to compare the emotion recognition, facial recognition and neuropsychological assessments of adult ADHD patients with those of healthy controls, and to thus determine the effect of neuropsychological data on the recognition of emotional expressions. Methods: This study, which was based on a case-control model, was conducted with patients diagnosed with ADHD according to the DSM- IV-TR, being followed and monitored at the adult ADHD clinic of the Psychiatry Department of the Istanbul University Istanbul Medical Faculty Hospital. The study group consisted of 40 adults (27.5% female) between the ages of 20-65 (mean age 25.96±6.07; education level: 15.02±2.34 years) diagnosed with ADHD, and 40 controls who were matched/similar with the study group with respect to age, gender, and education level. In the ADHD group, 14 (35%) of the patients had concomitant diseases. Pictures of Facial Affect, the Benton Face Recognition Test, and the Continuous Performance Test were used to respectively evaluate emotion recognition, facial recognition, and attention deficit and impulsivity of the patients. Results: It was determined that, in comparison to the control group, the ADHD group made more mistakes in recognizing all types of emotional expressions and neutral expressions. The ADHD group also demonstrated more cognitive mistakes. Facial recognition was similar in both groups. It was determined that impulsivity had a significant effect on facial recognition. Conclusion: The social relationship disorders observed in ADHD can be affected by emotion recognition processes. In future studies, it may be possible to investigate the effects that early psychopharmacological and psychotherapeutic interventions administered for the main symptoms of ADHD have on the impairment of emotion recognition.

Özet

Amaç: Dikkat eksikliği hiperaktivite bozukluğu (DEHB) olan eriş- kinlerde kişiler arası ilişkilerde bozukluklar, bozulmuş sözel olmayan iletişim ile ilgili olabilir. Çalışmamızın amacı DEHB olan erişkinlerin duygu tanıma, yüz tanıma, nöropsikolojik değerlendirmesinin kontrol- lerle karşılaştırılması, nöropsikolojik verilerin duygu ifadelerini tanıma üzerindeki etkilerinin araştırılmasıdır. Yöntem: İstanbul Üniversitesi İstanbul Tıp Fakültesi Hastanesi, Psi- kiyatri Anabilim Dalı Erişkin DEHB Polikliniği’nden takip edilen DSM-IV-TR’ye göre DEHB tanısı konmuş hastalarla yürütülen bir va- ka-kontrol çalışmasıdır. Çalışma grubu 20-65 yaş arası DEHB olan 40 erişkin (%27,5 kadın; yaş ort: 25,96±6,07; eğitim süresi: 15,02±2,34 yıl) ile yaş, cinsiyet, eğitim yönünden eşleştirilmiş 40 kontrolden oluş- maktadır. DEHB grubunda 14 (%35) hastanın eş tanısı vardı. Duygu tanıma araçları, Benton Yüz Tanıma Testi, Sürekli Performans Testi sıra- sıyla duygu tanıma, yüz tanıma, dikkat eksikliği, dürtüsellik belirtileri- nin değerlendirilmesi için kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: DEHB grubunun kontrollere kıyasla tüm duygu ifadeleri ile duygu içermeyen yüz ifadesini tanımada daha fazla hata yaptıkları, daha fazla bilişsel kusur gösterdikleri saptandı. Yüz tanıma her iki grupta ben- zerdi. Dürtüselliğin yüzde duygu tanıma üzerinde anlamlı etkisi olduğu saptandı. Sonuç: DEHB’de görülen sosyal ilişkilerdeki bozukluklar duygu tanı- ma süreçlerinden etkilenebilir. DEHB’nin temel belirtilerine yapılacak erken psikofarmakolojik ve psikoterapötik müdahalelerin duygu tanıma kusuru üzerindeki etkisi araştırılabilir.
