一个重要的研究问题是注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）是否与早期或晚期注意力控制机制有关，以及这是否区分了非多动亚型（“ADD”）。这个问题是在145 ADD/ADHD和典型的发展比较青少年（13-17岁）的样本。分别采用注意瞬脱和逆跳跃任务检测早期和晚期控制。ADD的定义是使用标准截止值，以确保低活动水平的儿童谁，否则满足ADHD的完整标准。与对照组和ADHD合并组（ADHD-C）相比，ADD组的注意力瞬脱减弱。使用DSM-IV定义的ADHD-主要是注意力不集中型或DSM症状计数没有产生这种效果。ADHD-C表现出更大的弱点，在反应抑制，表现在antisaccade任务。结合任务产生了一个相互作用，区分两个任务上的组性能。
An important research question is whether Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is related to early or late stage attentional control mechanisms and whether this differentiates a non-hyperactive subtype (“ADD”). This question was addressed in a sample of 145 ADD/ADHD and typically developing comparison adolescents (aged 13-17). Attentional blink and antisaccade tasks were used to assay early and late stage control, respectively. ADD was defined using normative cutoffs to assure low activity level in children who otherwise met full criteria for ADHD. The ADD group had an attenuated attentional blink versus controls and ADHD-combined (ADHD-C). The effect was not produced using DSM-IV definition of ADHD-primarily inattentive type nor DSM symptom counts. ADHD-C showed greater weakness in response inhibition, as manifest in the antisaccade task. Combining tasks yielded an interaction differentiating group performance on the two tasks.
