Reduced Neural Error Signaling in Left Inferior Prefrontal Cortex in Young Adults With ADHD

Conclusion: Hypoactivation of the left inferior frontal cortex during error signaling might represent a neurofunctional marker of a crucial prerequisite for error processing in adults with ADHD. This possibly indicates a dysfunction of the neural system that operates task-set related representations and monitoring of erroneous performances in service of ensuing posterror processing.
