Similarities and differences in executive functioning between ASD, ADHD, and ASD + ADHD groups.

Notes: The ASD + ADHD group appeared to share impairment in the flexibility and planning with the ASD group, while it shares the response inhibition deficit with the ADHD group. Conversely, deficit in attention, WM, preparatory processes, fluency, and concept formation does not appear to be distinctive in discriminating from ASD, ADHD, or ASD + ADHD group.

Abbreviations: ASD, autism spectrum disorder; ADHD, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder; WM, working memory.
