Journal ArticleDOI
The Adolescent Brain
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that there is a heightened responsiveness to incentives and socioemotional contexts during this time, when impulse control is still relatively immature, which suggests differential development of bottom‐up limbic systems to top‐down control systems during adolescence as compared to childhood and adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI
A time of change: behavioral and neural correlates of adolescent sensitivity to appetitive and aversive environmental cues.
TL;DR: This review discusses the emotional and incentive-driven behavioral changes in adolescents and their associated neural mechanisms, focusing on the dynamic interactions between the amygdala, ventral striatum, and prefrontal cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurobiology of the adolescent brain and behavior: implications for substance use disorders.
B. J. Casey,Rebecca M. Jones +1 more
TL;DR: This review discusses recent human imaging and animal work in the context of an emerging view of adolescence as characterized by a tension between early emerging "bottom-up" systems that express exaggerated reactivity to motivational stimuli and later maturing "top-down" cognitive control regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autism spectrum disorder
Catherine Lord,Traolach S. Brugha,Tony Charman,James C. Cusack,Guillaume Dumas,Thomas W. Frazier,Emily J.H. Jones,Rebecca M. Jones,Andrew Pickles,Matthew W. State,Julie Lounds Taylor,Jeremy Veenstra-VanderWeele +11 more
TL;DR: This Primer by Lord and colleagues reviews the epidemiology, mechanisms, clinical detection and treatment of autism and identifies the long-term needs of people with autism.
Journal ArticleDOI
