“…Specific ADHD-related executive impairment has been shown in tasks that measure inhibition (Bekker et al, 2005; Boonstra, Kooij, Sergeant, & Buitelaar, 2010; Boonstra et al, 2005; Miller et al, 2012), shifting or set-shifting (Boonstra et al, 2010; Boonstra et al, 2005; Halleland, Haavik, & Lundervold, 2012; Marchetta, Hurks, Krabbendam, & Jolles, 2008; Pazvantoglu et al, 2012; Rohlf et al, 2012; Woods, Lovejoy, Stutts, Ball, & Fals-Stewart, 2002), and access to long-term memory as measured by verbal fluency (Boonstra et al, 2005; Tucha et al, 2005; Woods et al, 2002). Planning (Miller et al, 2012; Schreiber, Javorsky, Robinson, & Stern, 1999), updating (King, Colla, Brass, Heuser, & Von Cramon, 2007; White & Marks, 2004), and dual tasking (Armstrong & Munoz, 2003; Dige, Maahr, & Backenro-Ohsako, 2008) have been less studied in this population, but there are indications that these domains may also be affected. None of the previous studies, however, assessed various executive domains in the same test battery, so it is difficult to determine whether there are specific executive deficits in ADHD or whether general executive functioning is impaired.…”
