I'm thinking along the lines of Ironmom. Two of my kids (so far) have working memory and processing scores that are lower (for my dd, it's a 26-point difference), and neither one has adhd. So, I'd guess that having the lower working memory and processing scores is an affect of adhd, but not a cause - though I wouldn't rule out it working both ways. It just doesn't seem unusual to have that type of scatter among gifted kids who don't have adhd, so I don't see how "fixing" it (if that's possible) would necessarily do anything to the adhd. Interesting idea, though!
