The state regulation hypothesis postulates that poor task performance of children with ADHD is related to poor energetical state control. The current study aimed to investigate whether such a deficit persists in adult ADHD. Event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded during administration of a Go/No-Go task that incorporated the stressor presentation rate of stimuli. It was found that males with ADHD responded slower than control males in the slow condition, which was accompanied by smaller parietal P3s, suggesting less effort allocation. No group differences were found with respect to the response inhibition measures (errors of commission and the N2 effect). In conclusion, problems in state regulation seem to persist in male adults with ADHD.
状态调节假说假定，患有注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）的儿童任务表现不佳与能量状态控制不佳有关。当前的研究旨在调查这种缺陷在成年ADHD患者中是否持续存在。在执行一项包含刺激应激源呈现率的Go/No-Go任务期间记录了事件相关电位（ERP）。研究发现，患有ADHD的男性在慢条件下的反应比对照男性慢，同时顶叶P3波较小，这表明努力分配较少。在反应抑制测量方面（错误率和N2效应）未发现组间差异。总之，状态调节问题似乎在成年男性ADHD患者中持续存在。
