English term or phrase: overdiagnosed
É o título de um capítulo de um livro sobre transtornos mentais. A frase é: IS ATTENTION DEFICIT/HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER (ADHD) OVERDIAGNOSED? Eu achei "superdiagnosticado " na web, mas queria saber se o termo é usado assim mesmo.

diagnosticado equivocadamente


Explanation:
Achei que pelo contexto da sua frase, essa seria uma boa ideia. A sindrome da hiperatividade eh muitas vezes o diagnostico equivacado dado a criancas sem limites impostos pelos pais. Uma ideia simplesmente.

Da Wikipedia:

Overdiagnosis is the diagnosis of "disease" that will never cause symptoms or death during a patient's lifetime. Overdiagnosis is the least familiar side effect of testing for early forms of disease – and, arguably, the most important. It is a problem because it turns people into patients unnecessarily and because it leads to treatments that can only cause harm.

Overdiagnosis occurs when a disease is diagnosed correctly, but the diagnosis is irrelevant. A correct diagnosis may be irrelevant because treatment for the disease is not available, not needed, or not wanted.

Because most people who are diagnosed are also treated, it is difficult to assess whether overdiagnosis has occurred in an individual. Overdiagnosis in an individual cannot be determined during life. Overdiagnosis is only certain when an individual remains untreated, never develops symptoms of the disease and dies of something else.

Thus most of the inferences about overdiagnosis comes from the study of populations. Rapidly rising rates of testing and disease diagnosis in the setting of stable rates of the feared outcome of the disease (e.g. death) are highly suggestive of overdiagnosis. Most compelling, however, is evidence from a randomized trial of a screening test intended to detect pre-clinical disease. A persistent excess of detected disease in the tested group years after the trial is completed constitutes the best evidence that overdiagnosis has occurred.

Although overdiagnosis is potentially applicable to the diagnosis of any disease, its origin is in cancer screening – the systematic evaluation of asymptomatic patients to detect early forms of cancer[1]. The central harm of cancer screening is overdiagnosis – the detection of abnormalities that meet the pathologic definition of cancer (under the microscope) but will never progress to cause symptoms or death during a patient's lifetime.

diagnosticados exageradamente


Explanation:
Quer dizer que eles diagnosticam todo mundo com isso, eu li alguns textos a respeito, é isso mesmo, agora toda criança que é um pouquinho agitada eles dizem que tem esses transtornos.
Acho que é nesse sentido o termo e a tradução ficaria melhor nesse sentido, quesaem diagosicando isso a torto e direito.
