The current study examined the relationships between ADHD-like symptoms, motivations for playing Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Games (MMORPGs), Wellbeing, and hours of gameplay per week in a sample of 329 respondents that play MMORPGs using the Adult ADHD Self-Report scale-V 1.1 (ASRS-V 1.1), the Online Gaming Motivation Scale (OGMS), and Ryff's Psychological Well-Being Scales (RPWBS). In the sample, a high percentage (26.14%) had ADHD-like symptoms. Results indicated that impulsivity had small positive correlations with roleplaying, escapism, competition, discovery, and advancement. Perceived inattentiveness had small positive correlations with escapism and competition, and small negative correlations with teamwork, socializing, and discovery. Combined impulsivity and perceived inattentiveness had small positive correlations with escapism, roleplaying, and competition, and small negative correlations with teamwork and socializing. The ADHD-like symptom group had small positive correlations with escapism and roleplaying, and small negative correlations with teamplay and socializing. The ADHD-like symptom group measured significantly higher in well-being than non-ADHD-like symptom controls. Factor analysis revealed a five-component model between well-being, perceived inattentiveness, impulsivity, combined perceived inattentiveness and impulsivity, and the factors of the OGMS.
