The Relation Between Disinhibition and Emotion Regulation in Boys With Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Abstract
This study examined group differences of 49 boys ages 6 to 11 years with and without attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in emotion regulation during frustrating peer competition. Half of all boys in each group were explicitly instructed to hide their feelings if they became upset during the competition. Behavioral inhibition, both before and after the competitive task, was examined using the Stop Signal Task (SST), and emotion regulation was assessed via structured observation data. Effect sizes indicated that impulsive ADHD boys displayed greater disinhibition and were less effective at emotion regulation than comparison boys. In addition, boys with ADHD were unsuccessful in masking their emotions even when instructed to do so. In contrast, comparison boys were more successful at emotion regulation when given instruction to self-regulate, and these regulatory attempts predicted later inhibitory control. Findings are discussed in the context of current ADHD-related theories of inhibitory deficit, and suggestions for future research are provided.

“a few studies have shown that ADHD is related to deficiencies in both emotion regulation (e.g., Maedgen & Carlson, 2000; Walcott & Landau, 2004) and emotion recognition (e.g., Kats-Gold, Besser, & Priel, 2007; Sinzig, Morsch, & Lehmkuhl, 2008; Yuill & Lyon, 2007).”

In the citing paper
“For example, in 49 boys with and without ADHD, cognitive control, indexed by response inhibition, accounted for 11% of the variance in ‘dysregulated’ behavior during a frustrating task (93).”

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.
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.
