Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Simulated Driver Safety (DS) Score averaged over 3 driving assessments at one interim and one final visit. [Interim visit = Week 3; Final visit = Week 7.]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Interim & final visits: Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale - 4th Edition (ADHD-RS-IV) [Interim visit = Week 3; Final visit = Week 7.]

  2. Interim & final visits: Clinical Global Impressions of Improvement (CGI-I) [Interim visit = Week 3; Final visit = Week 7.]

  3. Interim & final visits: Self-Rating of Simulated Driver Safety (DS) Performance Questionnaire [Post DS Testing - Interim visit = Week 3; Post DS Testing - Final visit = Week 7.]
