Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Karolinska Institutet, P O Box 281, 171 77 Stockholm, Sweden
J Abnorm Child Psychol 40:425-35. 2012..Our results indicated that hyperactivity/impulsivity, but not inattention, is an important early predictor for early-onset substance use, and a shared genetic susceptibility is suggested to explain this association...
