The Nature of Executive Function (EF) Deficits in Daily Life Activities in Adults with ADHD and Their Relationship to Performance on EF Tests (2011, background): “One definition of EF appearing frequently in the literature on ADHD refers to those neuro-cognitive processes that are involved in the maintenance of problem-solving toward a goal ( Nigg et al. 2005; Welsh and Pennington 1988 ;W illcutt et al.2005).”
Executive Function: Implications for Education. NCER 2017-2000. (2016, background): “Difficulties with EF are prominent in numerous disorders with childhood onset, moreover, including specific learning disabilities and ADHD, although there is increasing awareness of the heterogeneity of these disorders and associated EF deficits.”
Insights into the neural basis of response inhibition from cognitive and clinical neuroscience. (2009, neutral): “It has been noted, however, that the case for a causal role of inhibitory failures in the development of ADHD is weakened by the observation that perhaps only 51% of children with ADHD display deficits that would be considered clinically impairing (Nigg et al., 2005).”
“Ain't Misbehavin”: Towards a Developmentally-Specified Nosology for Preschool Disruptive Behavior (2009, positive): “…the relation and boundaries between the broad range of normative misbehaviors and psychopathological forms of disruptive behavior, and of limited utility in explaining variation and continuity over the lifespan and in response to intervention (Helzer & Hudziak, 2002; Nigg et al., 2005; Pine, 2008).”
Attention‐Deficit‐Hyperactivity Disorder: An Update (2009, background): “A meta-analysis of 17 studies involving 1200 subjects showed that although children with ADHD do show impaired inhibitory control compared with control subjects,(38) only 45–50% of children with ADHD showed a level of impairment that was beyond the 90th percentile of the control sample.(39) A recent”
