The degree to which genetic variation is unique to individual disorders versus shared across disorders is unclear. We use genome-wide genotype data from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC) of cases and controls for schizophrenia (SCZ), bipolar disorder (BPD), major depressive disorder (MDD), autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

  • Myth: ADHD Is Caused by Bad Parenting Fact: Parents Do Not Cause ADHD
    Myth: ADHD is caused by bad parenting Fact: Parents do not cause ADHD. The disorder comes from the accumulation of many environmental and genetic risk factors. By Stephen V Faraone, PhD The idea that parents cause ADHD arose ADHD runs in families. If one child has from the naïve observation that children ADHD, their brothers and sisters and with ADHD frequently misbehaved, along more likely to also have ADHD compared with the belief that misbehavior was a with the average child. sign of poor parenting.

Fraternal twins are like ADHD also comes from the fact that when regular brothers and sisters. They only psychologists teach parenting skills to share 50 percent of their genes. parents, the behavior of the child improves. While this is true, it is also true All of the twin studies show that if one that teaching parenting skills does not twin has ADHD, the probability that the markedly improve the symptoms of other twin has ADHD is much greater if ADHD. the twins are identical.

Bryson Submitted in partial completion of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Child Development at Sarah Lawrence College, May 2020 2 Abstract Parents and caregivers who are able to understand their own mental states are better able to hold a child’s mental states in mind, an important consideration for moderating negative perceptions of ADHD behavior. In this thesis, I discuss how mentalizing-focused treatment for parents and caregivers strengthens attachment bonds in families where a child is diagnosed with ADHD. I explore the effectiveness of mentalizing-focused treatment to parents, some of whom experience difficulty in understanding their own mental states, and all of whom experience challenges in interpreting the intentions and mental states of their children, particularly in families where a child has been diagnosed with ADHD.

What Are the Relationships? 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM Grand Ballroom Chair: Gagan Joshi, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital Overall Abstract: There is frequent comorbidity of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorders (ADHD), which are both neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders. The high co-occurrence rates suggest that there is overlap of genetic factors, cognitive dysfunctions, and functional and structural brain characteristics. These talks will discuss the evidence for shared factors involved in both ASD and ADHD. One in particular is the role of metabotropic glutamate receptors, which has been noted to play a crucial role in many neurodevelopmental disorders. We will also cover current research, clinical significance, and future directions for research and treatment of ASD and ADHD. Learning Objectives: Appreciate the high rates of Autism and ADHD co-occurrence and their shared genetic factors, cognitive dysfunctions, and functional and structural brain characteristics.

  • Neuropsychological Functioning in People with ADHD Across the Lifespan ⁎ Larry J
    Clinical Psychology Review 26 (2006) 466–485 Neuropsychological functioning in people with ADHD across the lifespan ⁎ Larry J. Seidman Pediatric Psychopharmacology Clinical and Research Program, Boston, MA, United States Psychiatric Neuroscience Program, Boston, MA, United States Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, United States Commonwealth Research Center, Boston, MA, United States Laboratory of Neuropsychology, Boston, MA, United States Massachusetts Mental Health Center Public Psychiatry Division of the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, MA, United States Harvard Medical School Departments of Psychiatry, Boston, MA, United States Abstract ADHD is defined by behavioral characteristics similar to neuropsychological disorders of executive dysfunction. This paper is a literature review of the neurocognitive characteristics of ADHD from early childhood through adulthood. The author addresses the development of the concept of attention and executive function (EF) deficits in ADHD, clinical neuropsychological studies of pre- teenage children, teenagers and adults with ADHD, gender and the role of psychiatric co-morbidity including the relationship of learning disabilities to ADHD, heterogeneity of neuropsychological dysfunctions, experimental neuropsychological studies, the relationship of brain structure to function, psychopharmacology of ADHD, and clinical neuropsychological assessment. The group data clearly supports the hypothesis that executive dysfunctions are correlates of ADHD regardless of gender and age, and these EF deficits are exacerbated by co-morbidity with learning disabilities such as dyslexia. However, there is limited data on children under the age of 5, teenagers from age 13–18, and adults with ADHD over the age of 40. Studies of individual classification of people with ADHD compared to healthy, non-psychiatric controls do not support the use of neuropsychological tests for the clinical diagnosis of ADHD, and indicate that not all persons with ADHD have EF deficits.
