Abbreviations: ADHD, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder; CD, conduct disorder; CPRS, Conners Parent Raring Scale; IQ, intelligence quotient; MRT, mean reaction time; ODD, oppositional defiance disorder; vmPFC, ventral medial prefrontal cortex; VS, ventral striatum.

ODD and CD diagnoses were based on Kiddie-Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia (K-SADS) structured psychiatric interviews.47

Estimated IQ was based on two subtests of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC)/ Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS-III): Vocabulary and Block Design.48, 49

a

N=12 (7%) with two 9-repeats.

b

N=20 (5%) with two 9-repeats.

c

10/10 genotype.

d

N=28 (15%) with two short alleles.

e

N=59 (14%) with two short alleles.
