BOLD differences normally attributed to inhibitory control predict symptoms, not task-directed inhibitory control in ADHD

ConclusionsStimuli that elicit task-directed integration of neural processing in healthy subjects instead appear to be directing integrated function towards managing symptomatic behaviour in ADHD. The ability of the current approach to determine whether altered neural activities reflect comparable functions in ADHD and control groups has broad implications for the development and monitoring of therapeutic interventions.
