ADHD is a developmental disorder that is known to influence traffic accidents because of the characteristics. Therefore, it is essential to understand the effects of psychological and behavioral characteristics of ADHD on traffic behaviors to identify effective methods of preventing traffic accidents. This study used an analog study method and focused on "attentional dysfunctions while moving." A self-checklist by 5 choices method that made of ADHD 18 items in DSM-5 was administered to university students and correlations between the ability of two types of spatial attention tasks and scores of attentional dysfunctions while moving were examined based on the degree of ADHD tendency. A two-way ANOVA was conducted on ADHD tendency and the ability of spatial attention. The results showed the participants with high ADHD tendencies demonstrated a low change detection ability that decreased "attentional dysregulation scores" and "a decline in arousal level scores". It was suggested that difficulties in maintaining attention might decrease the change detection ability of people with ADHD tendencies, which might influence carelessness while moving.
