Inter-relationships between executive functions and functional impairments among children with ADHD: findings from a network perspective

Learning Objectives:

1. Identify the executive function (EF) domains—Monitoring and Planning—found to have the highest centrality in a network model of executive functions and functional impairments among children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
2. Describe the bridge domains—Family and Inhibition—that most strongly connected the executive function and functional impairment communities in the network model.
