Method: European Network on Hyperkinetic Disorders (Eunethydis) studies of Attention - Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or Hyperkinetic Disorder (HKD) is briefly reviewed in the context of the international effort to discover the aetiology of the disorder. Results: There are promising neurobiological, neurophysiological and neuropsychological candidates to explain the nature of ADHD/HKD.
