By doing so, we evidenced that cocaine use was associated with increased ADHD symptoms, but only seen in adulthood, for inattention criteria (Mann whitney tests, p = 0.037, Cohen's d = 1.06 for cocaine use) (Figure 2).

However, ADHD patients had lower scores on the Go-No Go subscale (mean = 2.2; SD = 0.9), compared to non-ADHD participants (mean = 3; SD = 0) but after the Holm's correction the difference was not significant (Mann whitney, uncorrected p = 0.025) (Figure 3).
