“…Besides, compared with the control group, the prison inmates with ADHD showed poorer results on several measures of EFs and during controlling for IQ (Ginsberg, Hirvikoski, & Lindefors, ). However, some investigations have indicated that the executive dysfunctions are not consistently found in those with ADHD (Engelhardt, Nigg, Carr, & Ferreira, ; Epstein, Johnson, Varia, & Conners, ; King, Colla, Brass, Heuser, & von Cramon, ; Saboya, Coutinho, Segenreich, Ayrão, & Mattos, ); they have also revealed that cognitive deficits, especially problems with inhibitory processes, do not stretch far into adulthood. Moreover, many psychiatric disorders that are associated with ADHD are also related to executive dysfunctions (Pennington & Ozonoff, ; Seidman, Biederman, Faraone, Weber, & Ouellette, ); and this makes it difficult to determine whether the dysfunctions are attributable to ADHD, the presence of comorbid disorders or both.…”
