Die Prävalenz der Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-/Hyperaktivitätsstörung (ADHS) bei Kindern und Jugendlichen liegt weltweit bei etwa 5–8%, wobei Jungen etwa doppelt so häufig betroffen sind wie Mädchen (Ayano et al., 2023; Wolraich et al., 2019). Im Erwachsenenalter wird der Geschlechterunterschied geringer und die Prävalenz ist mit 2–3% deutlich niedriger (Cortese et al., 2025; Faraone et al., 2006; Posner […]

In the area of incapacity for work (AU), according to Meyer and colleagues, various health insurance companies have noticed a significant increase in the importance of depression in recent years [7]. According to data from the current health report from the Techniker Krankenkasse (TK), there was a significant increase in absences due to psychiatric disorders by more than four fifths between 2006 and 2014. This absenteeism only stagnated at a high level in the years 2014 to 2017. An increase in 90% is reported between 2000 and 2017 [8]. Similar information can be found in the current health report of the German Employee Health Insurance Fund (DAK). DAK data shows that the duration of AU in mental disorders has continuously increased threefold over the last 20 years. In 2017, the number of days absent due to mental disorders increased, albeit only slightly, by 1.5% more than in the previous year [9]. With 16.7% of lost days, mental disorders rank second in terms of the volume of sick days. In the results of the report by the umbrella organization of company health insurance companies (BKK), mental disorders also rank second among the causes of AU with 16.6% of all AU days [10]. By far the most absent days were caused by depression [9, 10].
