“…In the meantime, measures to assess CDS traits among adults have emerged and been psychometrically validated. Two measures have been used primarily: the Barkley Adult ADHD Rating Scale-IV (BAARS-IV; Sluggish Cognitive Tempo subscale [37]; four studies: Refs [38][39][40][41]) or the Adult Concentration Inventory [15,17,18]. For the English BAARS-IV, a three-factor solution was observed for the American-English version [39,40]; a two-factor solution was observed for the Turkish version [41], and a four-factor solution was observed for the Japanese version [38].…”

Further, to our knowledge, the American-English ACI [15,17] has only been translated into Brazilian-Portuguese [18,19].…”

The internal and external validity of cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS) relative to attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder-inattention (ADHD-IN) was evaluated herein with Farsi-speaking adults. A total of 837 Iranian adults assessed throughout the whole country (54.72% women, Mage = 23.85; SD = 7.05; age range = 18 to 58 years; 75% between 18 and 24 years old; reporting higher educational training) completed self-report measures of CDS, ADHD-IN, ADHD-hyperactivity/impulsivity (HI), depression, anxiety, and stress. Seven of the fifteen CDS symptoms showed a good convergent (high loadings on the CDS factor) and discriminant (higher loadings on the CDS factor than the ADHD-IN factor) validity. CDS also showed stronger first-order and unique associations with depression than ADHD-IN, whereas ADHD-IN showed stronger first-order and unique associations with ADHD-HI and anxiety than CDS. The first-order and unique associations of CDS and ADHD-IN did not differ in relation to stress. This study is the first to support the validity of the self-report of assessing CDS symptoms with the Adult Concentration Inventory with Farsi-speaking individuals residing in Iran, thus further strengthening the transcultural validity of the CDS, and paving the way for further transcultural research in the field of CDS among adults.

“…Barkley Adult Sluggish Cognitive Tempo (SCT) Scale (CDS) : This self-report scale was developed by Barkley by selecting symptom sets used in previous studies of CDS in children and adolescents (Barkley, 2012). The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale was conducted by Gul and Gul (2022), and as a result of their analyses, the authors removed item 9 of the scale. The scale has a two-factor structure, including Daydreaming and Sluggishness.…”

Objective: To examine the cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS) symptoms of mothers of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Method: The participants consisted of 223 mothers of children with ADHD, and data were collected using the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5 Disorders-Clinician Version (SCID-5-CV), the Stroop Test (ST), the Barkley Adult SCT Scale (CDS), and the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS). Results: The participants were divided into four groups based on psychopathology: the group without any psychiatric disorder, the group with only ADHD, the group with a psychiatric disorder other than ADHD, and the group with another psychiatric disorder along with ADHD. The group with any psychiatric disorder along with ADHD had the highest CDS scores, while the group without any psychopathology had the lowest CDS scores. Conclusion: CDS seems to be a construct associated with both ADHD and other internalizing disorders. Further studies are needed to shed more light on these relationships.

“…There are some studies on CDS symptoms in children and adolescents in Turkey (Başay et al, 2021; Ekinci et al, 2021; Gozpinar et al, 2022), but there are only three studies in adults. One of these studies was a psychometric study on the scores from the Barkley Adult SCT Scale (Gül & Gül, 2022), one investigated the relationship between CDS and burn‐out symptoms in psychiatrists (Gül et al, 2017), and the third evaluated the association between childhood CDS, substance use disorder, substance‐induced psychosis, and childhood ADHD (Gül, 2019). Evaluation of the transcultural validity of CDS symptoms in the adult population would contribute to further to the validity of CDS.…”

ObjectiveThe internal (structural) and external validity of a self‐report measure of cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS, formerly sluggish cognitive tempo) relative to a self‐report measure of attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder‐inattention (ADHD‐IN) was evaluated with adults from university outpatient psychiatric clinics in Turkey.MethodsA total of 274 outpatients (75.9% women; ages 18–64 years; Mage = 31.06; SDage = 10.84; 50.4% anxiety disorders; 41.6% depressive disorders; 2.9% ADHD; 1.5% sleep disorders; 0.7% eating disorders; 2.9% no mental disorder) completed self‐report measures of CDS, ADHD‐IN, ADHD‐hyperactivity/impulsivity (HI), sleep problems, depression, and stress.ResultsAll 15 CDS symptoms measured by the Adult Concentration Inventory (ACI) showed convergent (moderate to high loadings on the CDS factor) and discriminant (loading close to zero on the ADHD‐IN factor) validity. CDS also showed stronger first‐order and unique associations than ADHD‐IN with sleep problems, depression, anxiety, and stress, whereas ADHD‐IN showed stronger first‐order and unique associations than CDS with ADHD‐HI.ConclusionThis is the first study to provide support for the scores from this 15 item self‐report measure of CDS by the ACI in a clinical sample of adults, with findings consistent with previous studies examining parent and teacher rating scale measures with the same 15 CDS symptoms. These findings provide additional support for usefulness of these 15 CDS symptoms as measured by the ACI to study CDS across various cultures.
