Research Review: Executive function profiles of preschool children with autism spectrum disorder and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: A systematic review
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are both associated with differences in Executive Functioning (EF). There is lack of clarity around the specificity or overlap of EF differences in early childhood when both disorders are first emerging. This systematic review aims to delineate preschool EF profiles by examining studies comparing the EF profiles of children with and without ASD or ADHD. Marina Christoforou et al.

Editorial Perspective: Leaving the baby in the bathwater in neurodevelopmental research
Open Access paper from the JCPP – “We review three worked examples (of stress processing, early activity level in ADHD and social brain development in autism) to illustrate how these new approaches might lead to new conceptual and translatable insights into neurodevelopment”. Sam Wass and Emily J.H. Jones (pic)

Associations between emotion recognition and autistic and callous-unemotional traits: differential effects of cueing to the eyes
Open Access paper from the JCPP – We tested whether cueing to the eyes improved emotion recognition in relation to autistic and CU traits in a heterogeneous sample of children enhanced for social, emotional and behavioural difficulties. Virginia Carter Leno et al.

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

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.

Complexity analysis of head movements in autistic toddlers
Paper from the JCPP – “Early differences in sensorimotor functioning have been documented in young autistic children and infants who are later diagnosed with autism. Previous research has demonstrated that autistic toddlers exhibit more frequent head movement when viewing dynamic audiovisual stimuli, compared to neurotypical toddlers”. Pradeep Raj Krishnappa Babu et al.

Early manifestations of genetic liability for ADHD, autism and schizophrenia at ages 18 and 24 months
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “Given that ADHD, autism and schizophrenia are all highly heritable, we tested the hypothesis that in the general population, measures of toddler language development, motor development and temperament are associated with genetic liability to ADHD, autism and/or schizophrenia”. Lucy Riglin (pic) et al.
