Cognitive Profiles in ADHD and ASC
Abstract
This repository contains the analysis code for a study examining working memory performance in children aged 8–14 across four groups: ADHD, autism spectrum conditions (ASC), combined ASC+ADHD, and a neurotypical comparison group (NTC). Participants completed an online face-based working memory task involving identity and emotion matching. The scripts cover data preprocessing, statistical analysis, and visualization of group differences in accuracy, reaction time, and intra-subject variability. The code is intended to support reproducibility and transparency in developmental cognitive neuroscience and clinical psychology research. It may be adapted for similar studies investigating executive function or using remote cognitive tasks with neurodivergent populations.
