abstract="Prior research suggests a possible association between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms and nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) in veterans. However, this association has not yet been replicated. The present study sought to replicate and expand upon this association in a gender-balanced sample of veterans (N = 124), more than half of whom had a lifetime history of NSSI. Contrary to hypotheses, adult ADHD symptoms were not associated with NSSI history or disorder. Instead, our findings suggest that disorders characterized by negative affect may have greater utility for predicting NSSI versus those characterized by impulsivity. Further research in epidemiological samples is needed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
