Hyperactivity

A core symptom of ADHD characterized by excessive movement, restlessness, difficulty remaining seated or still, and feeling driven as if by a motor. In adults, hyperactivity often manifests as internal restlessness rather than obvious physical activity. For digital accessibility, hyperactivity can affect the ability to engage with sedentary screen-based activities for extended periods and may lead users to impulsively navigate away from content or rush through important information. Providing interactive, engaging content formats and allowing for flexible consumption patterns can help accommodate hyperactivity.
