A common core dysfunction in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: A scientific red Herring?

Behavioral and Brain Sciences 28 (3):443-444 (2005)
Abstract The reinforcement/extinction disorder hypothesis (Sagvolden et al.) is an important counterweight to the executive dysfunction model of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, like that model, it conceptualises ADHD as pathophysiologically homogeneous, resulting from a common core dysfunction. Recent studies reporting neuropsychological heterogeneity suggest that this common core dysfunction may be the scientific equivalent of a red herring.
