The cognitive genetics of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): sustained attention as a candidate phenotype.

Cortex; a journal devoted to the study of the nervous system and behavior - 1 Aug 2006

Bellgrove Mark A, Hawi Ziarih, Gill Michael, Robertson Ian H

Abstract excerpt

Here we describe the application of cognitive genetics to the study of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Cognitive genetics owes much to the pioneering work of cognitive neuropsychologists such as John Marshall, whose careful observations of cognitive dissociations between brain-lesioned patients greatly advanced the theoretical understanding of normal cognitive function. These theories have in...
