Subclaims¶

q3 i2 Total ADHD symptoms throughout childhood significantly predicted SSRT at 17 years (β = 0.28), but neither inattention nor hyperactivity-impulsivity uniquely predicted it. → Einziger Tzlil 2021 q3 i? The early precursors (paternal inattention, child effortful control) did not predict adolescent SSRT. → Einziger Tzlil 2021 (2)

Evidence¶

Einziger Tzlil 2021¶

Einziger Tzlil, Ben-Shachar Mattan S., Devor Tali, Shmueli Michael, Auerbach Judith G., Berger Andrea. (2021). "My Brain Can Stop": An ERP Study of Longitudinal Prediction of Inhibitory Control in Adolescence. Brain Sciences, 11(1), 100. https://doi.org/10.3390/brainsci11010100

q3 · i2 · associational · r2

Hierarchical regression predicting SSRT at 17 years in the longitudinal sample; the model was significant with adjusted R2 of 10%. The article reports total symptoms "significantly predicted the SSRT at 17 years of age, β = 0.28, p < 0.05"; SSRT could not be estimated for 14 participants.

"Inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms throughout childhood did not uniquely predict the SSRT. In other words, neither of these symptom domains showed specificity for the prediction of the SSRT (when testing the same model with the total ADHD symptoms scale, total ADHD symptoms throughout childhood significantly predicted the SSRT at 17 years of age, β = 0.28, p < 0.05)."

q3 · i? · associational · r2

Null finding from the path analyses in the same longitudinal sample. The article reports "The early precursors did not predict the SSRT in adolescence"; no effect size is printed, so this is a non-detected effect, not a measured small one.

"The early precursors did not predict the SSRT in adolescence."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Higher inattention symptoms throughout childhood uniquely predict reduced adolescent N2 amplitude during successful inhibition, beyond hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms — related
• Consistently high childhood ADHD symptoms correlate with both reduced N2 amplitude and longer SSRT in adolescence — related
• Early precursors predict adolescent N2 directly, not indirectly through childhood inattention symptoms — related
• Lower temperamental effortful control at 36 months directly predicts reduced N2 amplitude in adolescence, above and beyond ADHD symptoms — related
• Paternal inattention symptoms measured in early infancy predict adolescent N2 amplitude almost 17 years later, suggesting a parent-of-origin effect — related
• Adolescents in the lowest quartile of concurrent inattention symptoms show larger negative N2 amplitudes than the other three quartiles, with no linear concurrent correlation — related
• Inhibitory control did not relate to adolescents' communicative perspective-taking — related
• Lower inhibitory control in early adolescence predicts greater increases in delinquency from middle adolescence to emerging adulthood — related
