Abstract	The study aims to investigate the previously described differences in mental health among children with ADHD and controls and how mental health correlates with intelligence and core symptoms of ADHD. Relevant literature is presented from both an international and a national perspective. The study included children assessed for ADHD in a clinical setting (n = 64) and children from three school classes in Skane (n = 59). The school children (8-14 years) were tested with test of intelligence and attention, conducted self-assessments of mental illness and were rated on ADHD symptoms by parents and teachers. The results were compared with previously collected data from the child and adolescent psychiatry in Region Skane. The results show that children with ADHD have statistically significant lower levels of mental health compared to controls and that there is a correlation between parent and teacher ratings of core symptoms and self-assessment on the Beck Youth Scales. Children with ADHD exhibit a statistically significant lower level of intelligence than controls. The level of mental health is higher than what could be expected from the literature, while the correlation between core symptoms and psychological distress follows the previously described patterns. No signifiant correlation could be found between the level of intelligence and mental illness, which is contrary to previous research. Possible reasons for the results are discussed, as well as clinical relevance and future research opportunities.
