Direito à inclusão de pessoas com TDAH em concursos públicos: estudo jurídico do mandado de segurança nº 34414 do STF

Abstract

This study aims to understand the use of the writ of mandamus as a viable legal instrument for the enforcement of the rights to equality and inclusion, through the analysis of Writ of Mandamus No. 34414, judged by the Federal Supreme Court of Brazil, which addresses the recognition of individuals diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) within the quota system for persons with disabilities. Considering the increasing number of ADHD diagnoses and the specific needs these individuals present, the main objective of this research is to legally analyze the implications of this judicial decision for the effectiveness of the right to inclusion of people with special needs in public service entrance exams, ensuring their access to public positions and full social integration. The methodology used was deductive in approach, descriptive in nature, and qualitative, with a focus on jurisprudential analysis. The findings indicate that the recognition of ADHD in public competitive examinations still faces institutional resistance, requiring greater awareness among examination boards and stronger legal regulation. The study highlights the importance of constitutional jurisprudence as a tool for promoting inclusion and social justice.
