Useful ideas.
Honest foundations.
Short should not mean stripped of the caveats that matter.
What the articles are for
These articles expand selected subjects from The Short Version books by Alexander Crespo. They explain an idea, give context for the research, and suggest a practical way to explore it.
Research and exercises are different things
A study can support a principle without having tested the particular checklist, example or exercise we build around it. We describe practical exercises as experiments to try. We do not present them as proven treatments or promise an outcome.
Sources you can follow
Each article lists its main sources, with links to the original research, a research review or the original author where possible. Sources are accompanied by notes explaining what they do and do not support. Studies in a general population are not presented as ADHD-specific findings.
Evidence has different strengths
We distinguish research in adults with ADHD, approaches adapted from tested programmes, findings in other populations, and practical tools or coaching ideas with limited direct evidence. A useful analogy is not a diagnosis. A popular name for a difficulty is not necessarily a formal clinical term.
Authorship and dates
Articles carry an author byline and publication date. When an article receives a substantive revision, its update date changes as well. We do not imply that content has been independently reviewed by a clinician unless a named reviewer is explicitly credited.
Health boundaries
ADHD content is educational. It does not diagnose a condition or replace assessment, medication, therapy or individual advice from a qualified professional. Decisions about treatment belong with you and your clinician.
The books and the articles
Every article names the book and subjects it builds on. This makes it easier to move between a short practical chapter and a longer discussion, and to find the references behind the idea.
