From the Paper:

"In a very current article on Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), ... examined the evidence for the external validity of ADD as separate from ADHD. Based on his discussion of the history of association between the diagnoses as well as research on behavioral characteristics, family history, psychiatric comorbidity, test performance, treatment response, and physiological and neuroanatomical correlates, Stewart concluded that the evidence supporting the external validity of ADHD as a distinct clinical entity was lacking. On the other hand, ... has noted that there is a rapidly increasing body of research supporting the validity of different subtypes of ADD in terms of ADD with and without hyperactivity. "
