Three pathways are involved indicating ADHD subtypes:

1. Dysfunction of the prefrontal cortex is likely to result in a
reduced ability to exert control.

2. Dysfunction in dorsal striatum might lead to differences in the ability to predict what events are going to occur, whereas dysfunction in ventral striatum is more likely to lead to deficits in motivation and reward processing.

3. Dysfunction of the cerebellum is likely associated with problems in the ability to predict when events are going to occur and other problems with timing. The fronto-cerebellar circuit may be involved in temporal processing. The cerebellum has outputs to both the prefrontal cortex and the basal ganglia.

Researchers have identified a hippocampal neural network that activates during stress. 😖 Activity in a hippocampal-hypothalamus network predicts greater feelings of stress, while connectivity between the hippocampus and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex predicts less stress.
