dc.description.abstractAttention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) presents challenges for individuals using modern technology, especially websites and user interfaces, due to difficulties with focus, planning, and impulse control. With a global prevalence of 2.58% to 6.76% among adults, accessibility and inclusivity in design become crucial. This research explores how graphic design principles can enhance digital experiences for individuals with ADHD, creating a more inclusive environment. The study employs semi-structured interviews and case study analyses of the White House and IRS websites, along with literature on ADHD and user interface design. The findings lead to design principles tailored for ADHD users and contribute to a redesign project for the "Berlin Service Portal" government website. Acknowledging limitations, the research aims to improve accessibility and inclusivity for individuals with ADHD. Keywords: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, ADHD, accessibility, inclusivity, graphic design, user interface design, digital experiences, design principles, semi-structured interviews, case study analysisen
