Abstract:
Attention-Deficits/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common
neurodevelopmental disorder that affects both children and adults and is
associated with a range of cognitive and behavioural difficulties. Particularly, a
sustained attention deficit seems to be one of the hallmark symptoms of ADHD.
The aim of this thesis is to advance our understanding of the sustained attention
deficits in adult ADHD. In the first chapters of this thesis the neural
underpinnings underlying sustained attention deficits in adults with ADHD are
explored by combining neurophysiological measures with cognitive and
neuropsychological testing.
