Is it true that anger management difficulties are strongly correlated with ADHD?

Yes. Multiple studies and meta-analyses establish that emotional dysregulation, emotional lability, and impulsive aggression—manifestations of anger management difficulties—are strongly correlated with ADHD across the lifespan.

The analysis

The retrieved literature consistently supports the claim that anger management difficulties (encompassing emotion dysregulation, emotional lability, and impulsive aggression) are robustly associated with ADHD in both children and adults. Papers [7], [9], and [11] provide strong empirical and meta-analytic evidence for this relationship.
