abstract="Researchers have suggested a link between right-hemisphere dysfunction and reported attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms. In this experiment non-clinical participants completed the Adult ADHD Self-report Scale (ASRS) and performed a vigilance task requiring either global or local letter target discriminations. Global target discriminations have shown right hemisphere dominance and local target discriminations have shown left hemisphere dominance in brain imaging studies. While the global-local discrimination did not affect the results, the ASRS did significantly predict the decline of detections over time on task, e.g. the vigilance decrement. Thus, the ASRS may be useful in non-clinical populations as a predictor for vigilance performance.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
