Abstract:
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a form of neuronal dysplasia featuring high hereditary (up to 76%). This paper reviews recent progress made in genetic research on the cognitive function in ADHD. Two aspects of cognitive function were explored from the perspective of genetics, including intelligence and executive function.
