Abstract
•22q11DS offers a compelling model to understand the neural substrates of attentional dysfunction.•First study directly comparing neural function in 22q11DS vs. ADHD patients•22q11DS and ADHD patients show a shared deficit in RI-related activation.•ADHD patients showed greater activity in the middle frontal gyrus than 22q11DS during RI.•Neural activity is inversely correlated with self-reported Cognitive Impulsivity in 22q11DS.
