► ADHD + DCD group were not significantly more inattentive than the ADHD group. ► ADHD + DCD group conformed to speed-accuracy trade-offs during imagined pointing. ► Real:imagined pointing movement correlation for ADHD + DCD group was low. ► Accuracy on imagined hand rotation task for ADHD + DCD group as low as DCD group. ► DCD in ADHD appears to be more than just the result of poor inattention.
