In a recent study published in Scientific Reports, researchers assessed the importance of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) features as a predictor of internalizing problems. Study: ...

A massive genetic analysis of more than 6 million people is revealing new clues about why mental health disorders frequently overlap.

Guest post written by Michelle Ramos, PhD. Adolescent behavior problems are often classified as either internalizing or externalizing behaviors. Internalizing behaviors include things like anxiety, ...

We used genomic structural equation modeling to investigate the shared genetics of internalizing, externalizing, and alcohol use traits, as well as to explore whether specific domains of internalizing ...

An international team of researchers has shed light on why mental health conditions often occur together. Researchers analyzed data from more than 6 million people to explore the connections among ...

A sweeping genomic analysis reveals how psychiatric disorders cluster into five biological families, exposing shared pathways and pinpointing where their genetic roots diverge. Study: Mapping the ...

The study found that these disorders were influenced by five genetic factors, each of which was shared by two or more disorders. Pleiotropy and genetic association When multiple measurable and ...
