Good point, pb, and one of the reasons I am cautious about Dale Archer, who may take the strength-based perspective a bit to the extreme. Hallowell's list, though, pairs the deficits and strengths on a more balanced basis. (He has a book, too, the classic "Driven to Distraction": https://www.amazon.com/Driven-Distraction-Revised-Recognizing-Attention/dp/0307743152.)
