Abstract

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity and other clinical symptoms. Among them, emotional dysfunction is one of the clinical manifestations of ADHD. This article combs the characteristics of ADHD children's facial emotion recognition, emotional response, emotional regulation and behavioral problems, as well as the neurophysiological mechanism of ADHD children's emotional ability, with a view toproviding some references for a more in-depth understanding of the emotional capabilities of children with ADHD and,suggesting possible directions for future research.

Key words
