Inhibition

Inhibition refers to the ability to suppress inappropriate or irrelevant responses or behaviours. Deficits in inhibitory control are associated with various mental health disorders in children and adolescents, including ADHD, conduct disorder, and anxiety. Improving inhibitory control through cognitive training or behavioural interventions can be beneficial for managing symptoms and improving overall functioning.
