Guest Editorial: Overview, implications, and directions of twin design research exploring neurodevelopmental conditions
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “We included 26 studies that investigated monozygotic (MZ) twin pairs discordant for ASD and sought to explore biological mechanisms and phenotypic presentations associated with non-shared environment”. Lynnea Myers and Sven Bölte

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and white matter microstructure: The importance of dimensional analyses and sex differences
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “Attention-deficit/hyperactive disorder (ADHD) has substantial heterogeneity in clinical presentation. A potentially important clue may be variation in brain microstructure. Using fractional anisotropy (FA), previous studies have produced equivocal results in relation to ADHD. This may be due to insufficient consideration of possible sex differences and ADHD’s multi-componential nature”. Scott A. Jones et al.

Dimensions of cognition, behaviour, and mental health in struggling learners: A spotlight on girls
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “Gender biases to stereotypically male behaviours are prevalent among practitioners, even when the focus is on identifying cognitive and learning difficulties. This underscores the need to include cognitive and female-representative criteria in diagnostic systems to identify girls whose difficulties could go easily undetected.” Jacalyn Guy (pic) et al.

Preschool development, temperament and genetic liability as early markers of childhood ADHD: A cohort study
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “The present study sets out to identify early markers and developmental characteristics during the first 30 months of life that are associated with ADHD 6 years later”. Esther Tobarra-Sanchez (pic) et al.,

Editorial: Polygenic risk scores and early manifestations of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “Results from a series of multilevel random-effects meta-analyses suggested that pre-school children with current or later-emerging ADHD are likely to experience difficulties in multiple neurocognitive and behavioural functions”. Henrik Larsson (pic) and Guilherme V. Polanczyk

Multivariate associations between behavioural dimensions and white matter across children and adolescents with and without attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
Open Access paper from the JCPP – “This study aimed to identify associations between white matter and a broad set of clinical features across children and adolescent with and without ADHD using a data-driven multivariate approach”. Xuan Bu et al.

Practitioner Review: Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism spectrum disorder – the importance of depression
Open Access paper from the JCPP – “Young people with neurodevelopmental disorders, such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism spectrum disorder, show high rates of mental health problems, of which depression is one of the most common. Given that depression in ASD and ADHD is linked with a range of poor outcomes, knowledge of how clinicians should assess, identify and treat depression in the context of these neurodevelopmental disorders is much needed”. Anita Thapar (pic) et al.
