Research Interests
The heterogeneity that is evident in children with ADHD symptoms in terms of three different aspects: expression of the two ADHD symptom domains, neuropsychological impairments, and comorbid behavioral problems. Besides this I am also interested in children with Asperger symptoms, callous unemotional traits, emotion regulation and Parent-Child relations.
