The impacts associated with having ADHD: an umbrella review (2024)
Journal Article
French, B., Nalbant, G., Wright, H., Sayal, K., Daley, D., Groom, M. J., …Hall, C. L. (in press). The impacts associated with having ADHD: an umbrella review. Frontiers in Psychiatry,

Introduction: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects up to 5% of the population and is characterised by symptoms of impulsivity, hyperactivity and inattention. These symptoms are significantly impairing and carry additional risks for... Read More about The impacts associated with having ADHD: an umbrella review.

Risks Associated With Undiagnosed ADHD and/or Autism: A Mixed-Method Systematic Review (2023)
Journal Article
French, B., Daley, D., Groom, M., & Cassidy, S. (2023). Risks Associated With Undiagnosed ADHD and/or Autism: A Mixed-Method Systematic Review. Journal of Attention Disorders, 27(12), 1393-1410. https://doi.org/10.1177/10870547231176862

Background: The two most prevalent neurodevelopmental disorders—Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism (ASD)—(ASD/ADHD) strongly impact individuals’ functions. This is worsened when individuals are undiagnosed and risks such as in... Read More about Risks Associated With Undiagnosed ADHD and/or Autism: A Mixed-Method Systematic Review.

Hand posture, but not vision of the hand, affects tactile spatial resolution in the grating orientation discrimination task (2022)
Journal Article
French, B., Di Chiaro, N. V., & Holmes, N. P. (2022). Hand posture, but not vision of the hand, affects tactile spatial resolution in the grating orientation discrimination task. Experimental Brain Research, 240, 2715-2723. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00221-022-06450-3

The grating orientation discrimination task (GOT) is a sensitive and reliable measure of tactile spatial resolution, or acuity. We used the GOT in three experiments to investigate the effects of hand posture and hand visibility on spatial acuity. Par...

Ceiling effects in the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 (MABC-2) suggest that non-parametric scoring methods are required (2018)
Journal Article
French, B., Sycamore, N. J., McGlashan, H. L., Blanchard, C. C., & Holmes, N. P. (in press). Ceiling effects in the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 (MABC-2) suggest that non-parametric scoring methods are required. PLoS ONE, 13(6), Article e0198426. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0198426

Initially designed to identify children's movement impairments in clinical settings, the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 (MABC-2) is also widely used to evaluate children's movement in research. Standardised scores on the test are calculat... Read More about Ceiling effects in the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 (MABC-2) suggest that non-parametric scoring methods are required.
