Individual competencies, family cohesion, and social resources may reduce emotional problems and behavioral problems and improve QoL among adolescents with ADHD and among medicated individuals.
Therefore, we aimed to assess the mediating and moderating effect of individual competencies, family cohesion, and social resources on the relationship between coexisting emotional problems and conduct problems and QoL.
