BPND values for control and ADHD groups on placebo and d-amph. Regional pattern of D2/D3 binding on placebo differed as a function of Group, as described by statistics provided in the last three rows.

The group × ROI interaction was driven by group differences in binding discrepancies between AST vs LST (F(1,31)=7.20; p=0.01) and between SMST vs LST (F(1,31)=4.86; p=0.04); pairwise comparisons among regions are Bonferroni corrected. Regional BPND on d-amph did not differ significantly as a function of group (ps>0.45).
