Answer to Question 1

 Core characteristics  compromised functioning in two areas (inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity); child could have deficits in one or both of these areas
 Examples related to inattention  short attention span, inability to play a game or concentrate on an academic task, etc.
 Examples related to hyperactivity/impulsivity  always on the go, excessive motor activity, inability to sit still, fidgeting, excessive talking, intrusive interactions with others
