Abstract	Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is highly heritable; however, an adequate home environment may moderate its development. This study examined the early home environment of 70 male adolescents (M age = 13.5 years, SD = 0.95) participating in a prospective high-risk longitudinal study. Results demonstrated that adolescents who were eventually diagnosed with ADHD tended to have higher home chaos and less enriched home environments in early childhood. Within the different aspects of enriched home environment, less cognitive stimulation--but not less emotional/physical support--was found between diagnosed and nondiagnosed adolescents. This effect was also found among the subgroup of those who, a priori, were at familial risk for ADHD. Early cognitive stimulation longitudinally predicted both ADHD diagnosis and ADHD symptom domains, above and beyond parental ADHD symptoms and other aspects of the early home environment. Results suggest the possible protective role of early cognitive stimulation in the development of ADHD. (As Provided).
