Progress in gender differences and mechanisms of executive function in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)have significant gender differences in incidence rate,symptoms and prognosis.One of the main characteristics of ADHD children's cognitive impairment is executive function(EF)impairment.This article reviews the research on gender differences and mechanisms of ADHD children's EF in recent years,and finds that there are significant gender differences in ADHD children's EF,mainly reflected in inhibitory control,cognitive flexibility,hot EF.But the research results are different.Little is known about the mechanism of gender differences in EF,which is mainly limited to the differences in brain functional areas,such as the primary motor cortex,medial orbitofrontal cortex,basal ganglia,amygdala(positive/negative functional connection),and frontal cerebellar circuit,and there is little in-depth research.
