Graphic depicting mental health spectrums with five axes: Cognitive Flexibility to Habit Formation, Motor-Sensory Modulation to Cognitive-Mediated Control, Impulsivity to Compulsivity, Affective Stability to Dysregulation, and Intact Agency to Aberrant Salience. Each axis shows progression marked with conditions like ASD, OCD, TOCD, ADHD, anxiety, and bipolar disorders, and CHR-P. — Transdiagnostic control dimensions in pediatric OCD comorbidity. These continua represent conceptual transdiagnostic dimensions of cognitive–emotional control. Individual children do not fall at the extremes of these continua; rather, they occupy different positions along each dimension and may show some, but not all, of them.
