Detailed description of study

The purpose of this study is to understand more about what leads some children to make potentially dangerous, risky decisions as they grow older.  We want to carefully study their behavior and scan their brains in a brain scanner (magnetic resonance imager or MRI). We will compare the children at risk with a group of typically developing children to understand more about the brain’s basis for making risky decisions. 
Seeking children 11-12 years old with or without:
   - ADHD
   - Behavioral Issues
   

Participants will be paid for their participation.
