Attentional Control Activation Relates to Working Memory in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
Open accessAbstract
Background Attentional control difficulties in individuals with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) might reflect poor working memory (WM) ability, especially because WM ability and attentional control rely on similar brain regions. The current study examined whether WM ability might explain group differences in brain activation between adults with ADHD and normal control subjects during attentional demand.Methods Participants were 20 adults with ADHD combined subtype with no comorbid psychiatric or learning disorders and 23 control subjects similar in age, IQ, and gender. The WM measures were obtained from the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-III and Wechsler Memory Scale-Revised. Brain activation was assessed with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) while performing a Color-Word Stroop task.Results Group differences in WM ability explained a portion of the activation in left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), which has been related to the creation and maintenance of an attentional set for task-relevant information. In addition, greater WM ability predicted increased activation of brain regions related to stimulus-driven attention and response selection processes in the ADHD group but not in the control group.Conclusions The inability to maintain an appropriate task set in young adults with combined type ADHD, associated with decreased activity in left DLPFC, might in part be due to poor WM ability. Furthermore, in individuals with ADHD, higher WM ability might relate to increased recruitment of stimulus-driven attention and response selection processes, perhaps as a compensatory strategy.

“In contrast, the group difference in the WM correlation was in the opposite direction within three other regions. These regions included ventromedial PFC (BA10), which has been implicated in “default mode” processing (38).”

The citation is attached to the statement that ventromedial PFC is implicated in default-mode processing, not to the preceding claim about the direction of working-memory correlations. The Conclusions (page unavailable) identify medial ventral prefrontal cortex as a component of the default-mode network, and the Discussion (page unavailable) describes its connectivity with another default-mode component.

“Furthermore, WM ability in individuals with ADHD might relate to attentional control processes other than task-set maintenance, such as stimulus-driven attention and response selection.”

No prior studies have directly examined how the neural substrates supporting both working memory and attentional control, namely DLPFC, might be altered in young adults with ADHD.
“Despite these similarities, no studies have investigated directly how the neural substrates that support both WM ability and attentional control, namely DLPFC, might be altered in young adults with ADHD.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
Working memory networks maintain representations of task sets, producing a relationship between working memory ability and task-set maintenance.
“We propose that WM networks may maintain representations of task sets, resulting in a relationship between WM ability and task-set maintenance.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The Stroop task contains at least three levels of attentional demand: task-set selection and maintenance, task-relevant stimulus-dimension selection, and response selection.
“The Stroop task contains at least three levels of attentional demand: selection and maintenance of a task set for task-relevant information (i.e., attend to chromatic color), selection of the task-relevant stimulus dimension (i.e. the chromatic color blue, not the semantic meaning “RED”), and response selection (the response associated with blue versus with red).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
