“…In contrast, the current study examined the normal:abnormal spectrum of irritability longitudinally. The current findings are also consistent with extant studies that link adolescent internalizing and externalizing symptoms to variation in brain structure (Andre et al, 2019;Goodkind et al, 2015;Kaczkurkin, Park, et al, 2019;Pagliaccio et al, 2018;Snyder et al, 2017). This literature suggests that general psychopathology is related to variation in amygdala (Andre et al, 2019;Goodkind et al, 2015;Snyder et al, 2017), hippocampal (Andre et al, 2019;Goodkind et al, 2015;Snyder et al, 2017), temporal regions (Pagliaccio et al, 2018;Snyder et al, 2017), and ventral frontal regions (Pagliaccio et al, 2018;Snyder et al, 2017) which, in the current study, had the largest association with school age irritability.…”
