Impaired goal-directed decision-making leads to significant difficulties in adolescent attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This research will use novel imaging techniques to study individual-level impairments in brain connectivity in decision making circuits and the effects of common ADHD medications. As these medications are currently prescribed by trial and error, identifying specific connectivity brain signatures will make major contributions to personalised treatment selection.

目标导向决策受损导致青少年注意缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)的严重困难。这项研究将使用新的成像技术来研究决策电路中大脑连接的个体水平损害以及常见ADHD药物的影响。由于这些药物目前是通过反复试验开出的，识别特定的连接性大脑信号将对个性化治疗选择做出重大贡献。
