A diffusion model analysis of task set inertia and task set reconfiguration in ADHD.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveSwitching is one of three primary executive functions alongside inhibitory control and updating but remains relatively understudied in childhood attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) compared to investigations into working memory and inhibitory control deficits. Where extant literature in adults suggests that switch costs are due to a combination of task set inertia and task set reconfiguration costs, it is not clear which of these is most relevant to explaining ADHD-related atypicalities in performance.
methodsChildren with (
resultsConsistent with the switching literature in adults, switch costs for children were due to a combination of both task set inertia (reduced drift rate) as well as slower task set reconfiguration (
conclusionsThis study contributes to a growing literature finding that the performance deficits in children with ADHD across executive and non-executive function tasks are related to lower-level perceptual decision-making weaknesses that have downstream effects on higher-order processing.
