Objective:To examine the theoretical and empirical contribution of Joe Biederman and his colleagues to the understanding of executive function (EF) and ADHD.Method:We searched PubMed for references to EF in Biederman’s publications and conducted a narrative review of this literature.Results:In 50 or more papers using neuropsychological tests, rating scales and measures of mind wandering, Biederman demonstrated that EF are evident in ADHD and closely linked to its underlying neurobiological and genetic risk. He argued that EF need to be monitoring to ensure comprehensive assessment and treatment, but could not be used as a diagnostic proxy.Conclusion:Biederman built an innovative and impressive collaboration to address the issue of EF in ADHD. His work shows a commitment to understanding of EF in order to improve patient care. Biederman laid down a roadmap for research in ADHD and EF for the rest of the field to follow.

比德曼对理解多动症执行功能的贡献

目的：检验 Joe Biederman 及其同事对执行功能 (EF) 和 ADHD 的理解的理论和实证贡献。方法：我们在 PubMed 中搜索 Biederman 出版物中有关 EF 的参考文献，并对这些文献进行叙述性回顾。结果： Biederman 在 50 多篇使用神经心理学测试、评定量表和走神测量的论文中证明，EF 在 ADHD 中很明显，并且与其潜在的神经生物学和遗传风险密切相关。他认为 EF 需要进行监测以确保全面的评估和治疗，但不能用作诊断代理。结论：Biederman 建立了创新且令人印象深刻的合作来解决 ADHD 中的 EF 问题。他的工作表明了他致力于了解 EF 以改善患者护理。Biederman 制定了 ADHD 和 EF 研究路线图，供该领域的其他领域遵循。
