Description
Individuals identified as intellectually gifted with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have drawn little attention in educational research and programming beyond diagnostic reliability and validity. This study will explore the outcomes and experiences of a collection of postsecondary twice-exceptional students with ADHD and provide a more current account of these unique learners upon entering higher education settings. Participants will learn differences in how twice-exceptional students with ADHD experience stress and tools to aid student stress management.
