About This Working Memory Study in East Providence

Working memory (WM) deficits are a transdiagnostic feature of adolescent psychopathology that substantially contribute to poor clinical and functional outcomes. This proposal will utilize a multimodal neuroscientific approach to investigate whether non-invasive brain stimulation can modulate the neural mechanisms underlying adolescent WM deficits. Directly in line with NIMH priorities, the researchers will identify the contributing roles of prefrontal and parietal regions in WM processes, as well as identify optimal targets and parameters for novel brain-based treatments in adolescent psychopathology. This study is funded by the NIMH-K23

Inclusion Criteria

Ability to provide assent and have parent provide parental permission
English fluency of the participant and the legal guardian/parent
12-18 years
Parent rating on BRIEF-2 Working Memory: Greater than 1.0 SD above normative mean.
Clinical diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): predominantly inattentive type, predominantly hyperactive/impulsive type, combined type, or unspecified type. Diagnostic criteria will be confirmed with NICHQ Vanderbilt Assessment Scales-Parent.

Exclusion Criteria

Participants will be screened to exclude individuals with neurological or medical conditions that might confound the results, as well as to exclude participants in whom MRI or TMS might result in increased risk of side effects or complications. Common contraindications include metallic hardware in the body, cardiac pacemaker, patients with an implanted medication pumps or an intracardiac line, or prescription of medications known to lower seizure threshold. These account for the majority of the exclusion criteria listed below:
Intracranial pathology from a known genetic disorder (e.g., NF1, tuberous sclerosis) or from acquired neurologic disease (e.g. stroke, tumor), cerebral palsy, history of severe head injury, or significant dysmorphology
History of fainting spells of unknown or undetermined etiology that might constitute seizures
History of seizures, diagnosis of epilepsy, or immediate (1st degree relative) family history epilepsy
Any progressive (e.g., neurodegenerative) neurological disorder
Chronic (particularly) uncontrolled medical conditions that may cause a medical emergency in case of a provoked seizure (cardiac malformation, cardiac dysrhythmia, asthma, etc.)
Contraindicated metal implants in the head, brain or spinal cord (excluding dental implants, braces or fillings)
Non-removable makeup or piercings
Implanted medication pump
Vagal nerve stimulator
Deep brain stimulator
TENS unit (unless removed completely for the study)
Ventriculo-peritoneal shunt
Signs of increased intracranial pressure
Intracranial lesion (including incidental finding on MRI)
History of head injury resulting in prolonged loss of consciousness
Substance abuse or dependence within past six months (i.e., DSM-5 substance use disorder criteria)
Chronic treatment with prescription medications that decrease cortical seizure threshold, not including psychostimulant medication if deemed to be medically safe as part of the medical review process.
Active psychosis or mania
Current suicidal intent
Current pregnancy
Significant visual, hearing or speech impairment
Current wards of the state
