Attention deficit refers to difficulties in focusing, sustaining attention, and controlling impulses, leading to distractibility and restlessness.
It can affect various aspects of life, including academic or work performance and social interactions.
Attention deficit is often associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
However, attention deficit can also occur independently of ADHD and may manifest differently depending on individual circumstances and underlying causes.
