What is this?

This is a research-based assessment developed by Jessica McCabe, How to ADHD, and cognitive scientist Dr. Deirdre Kelly, PhD.

Its purpose?

To help you evaluate if a product, service, or anything else you’re considering committing to is (your) ADHD-friendly! So you can invest your (limited!) time, money, and other resources in ways that are more likely to work for your brain.

Through this assessment, you can see an estimated % of how well this service/product fits in several key areas. Is it…

Goal Effective
Engaging
Efficient
Cost-Effective
Easy to Learn
Ease of Access
Error Tolerant

This is a thorough assessment, and it can take some time. That being said, committing the time now could save a lot of time (and frustration) down the road.
