THE INFLUENCE OF SEROTONIN- AND OTHER GENES ON IMPULSIVE BEHAVIORAL AGGRESSION AND COGNITIVE IMPULSIVITY IN CHILDREN WITH ATTENTION-DEFICIT/HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER (ADHD): FINDINGS FROM A FAMILY-BASED ASSOCIATION TEST (FBAT) ANALYSIS

The influence of serotonin- and other genes on impulsive behavioral aggression and cognitive impulsivity in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): Findings from a family-based association test (FBAT) analysis

Abstract Background Low serotonergic (5-HT) activity correlates with increased impulsive-aggressive behavior, while the opposite association may apply to cognitive impulsiveness.Both types of impulsivity are associated with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and genes of functional significance for the 5-HT system are implicated in th
