Abstract:
Youth externalizing problems such as hyperactivity, impulsivity, and aggression often persist into adulthood and predict a range of other problems, evidencing critical need for early detection and intervention. Yet, efforts in these areas have relied almost exclusively on behavioral and clinical data. Recent initiatives, such as the Research Domain Criteria,1 integrate external validators such as performance on neuropsychological tasks to identify biomarkers. One promising potential biomarker relates to executive function (EF), high-level cognitive skills needed to plan and perform goal-directed behaviors.2.
