Event segmentation in ADHD: neglect of social information and deviant theta activity point to a mechanism underlying ADHD by Christian Beste, Veit Roessner, Astrid Prochnow, Xianzhen Zhou, Foroogh Ghorbani, Bernhard Hommel

“…For the ADHD group, the inferior frontal cortex associated with attentional sampling served as a hub instead, indicating problems in the deployment of attentional control.Conclusions This study shows that adolescents with ADHD perceive events differently from their NT peers, in association with a different brain network architecture that reflects less adaptation to the situation and problems in attentional sampling of environmental information. …”
