Abstract：
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with deficits in social functioning, including peer difficulties and poor relationship quality. Little is known, however, about the integrity of foundational sociocognitive abilities that support interpersonal interactions in ADHD. Face processing-a fundamental component of social cognition-has been a popular topic of recent investigations in this area. Researchers have attempted to delineate face processing mechanisms in ADHD to elucidate social deficits often seen in the disorder. Investigating the N170 event-related potential, a neural marker of face processing, has been a popular approach in this endeavour. Here, we present two accounts that offer competing views of how social deficits might arise in those with ADHD. Next, we systematically review and synthesise the literature on the N170 in ADHD to identify whether atypicalities in sociocognitive domains like face processing occur in this patient population. Gaps in the literature are identified and concrete solutions are offered to improve future research in this area. We end by discussing immediate implications for treatment approaches designed to address widely observed social deficits in individuals with ADHD.

摘要：
注意缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）与社会功能缺陷有关，包括同伴困难和关系质量差。鲜为人知，然而,关于支持多动症人际交往的基础社会认知能力的完整性。面部处理-社会认知的基本组成部分-一直是该领域最近研究的热门话题。研究人员试图描述ADHD的面部处理机制，以阐明该疾病中经常出现的社会缺陷。调查N170事件相关电位,面部处理的神经标记，在这一努力中一直是一种流行的方法。这里,我们提出了两个账户，这些账户提供了关于多动症患者可能如何出现社会赤字的相互竞争的观点。接下来,我们系统地回顾并综合了有关ADHD中N170的文献,以确定该患者人群中是否存在诸如面部处理等社会认知领域的非典型现象.确定了文献中的差距，并提供了具体的解决方案来改善该领域的未来研究。最后，我们讨论了旨在解决ADHD患者广泛观察到的社会缺陷的治疗方法的直接影响。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c)2023年APA，保留所有权利)。
