Executive Function Performance in Bilingual and Monolingual Individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): a Comparative Analysis of Cold (Inhibitory Control and Cognitive Flexibility) and Hot (Theory of Mind) Executive Functions

CONCLUSION: Individuals with ADHD exhibited impairments in both cold and hot executive functions, whereas bilingualism was associated with better theory-of-mind performance but not with cold executive functions. Critically, no significant interaction between bilingualism and ADHD was observed for any executive function domain, indicating that bilingualism neither mitigated nor exacerbated ADHD-related deficits.
