摘　　要：采用简化版儿童赌博任务,其中操纵了奖励和惩罚的强度,探察两种亚型(注意缺陷型和混合型)ADHD儿童的情感决策能力,同时采集儿童在任务中的皮肤电活动以探析ADHD儿童在情感决策中的生理机制。结果发现,在不同的奖惩强度下,ADHD儿童情感决策模式不同,在即刻奖励条件下,ADHD儿童情感决策的能力明显弱于正常对照组儿童,倾向于不利选择,所产生的预测性皮电振幅也明显低于正常对照组;在即刻惩罚条件下,ADHD儿童的情感决策能力未见异常。两种亚型ADHD儿童的表现模式相似。上述结果证明,ADHD儿童仅存在对奖励的异常敏感性,并确实影响了其决策能力,而其回避惩罚的能力正常。两种亚型ADHD儿童存在的问题相似。Although most of the theories on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） assumed that deficit in behavioral inhibition was probably the core problem of ADHD, recent studies implied that ADHD patients have aberrant sensitivity to reinforcement, such as rewards and punishment （Sergeant Jet al. 2000, 2005; Lurnan Met al. 2005）, or emotional control deficit. This aberrant sensibility hypothesis challenges the traditional view on ADHD. However, whether the patients are aberrant sensitive to rewards or to punishment are not clear. Moreover, some relevant studies indicated that Skin conductance responses could reflect their physical arousal while subject responding to cognitive, emotional and social stimulus （Fishbein D et al. 2005）. Using two experimental designs, the present study examined the effect of rewards and punishment on affective decision-making on two subtypes of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） and normal controls, and recorded their anticipatory Skin conductance recordings （SCRs） as well. Thirty-eight children between 7 and 12 years old with a clinical diagnosis of ADHD （22 of predominantly inattentive, i. e, ADHD-I; and 16 of combined, i. e., ADHD-C） were compared to 38 normal controls who were matched in age, IQ and the year of education in affective decision-making. Two variations of the Iowa Gambling Task （Bechara et al, 2000） were used, which typically involved two sets of cards in computer. On each of 100 trails, children chose from lof2 decks of cards, when turned, which displayed happy and sad faces （experiment 1）, or red and green star （experiment 2） corresponding to rewards or punishment respectively, that means won （happy face or red star） or lost （sad face or green star） cartoon cards by each choice. Cards in 1 deck offered more rewards per trail, but were disadvantageous across trails due to occasional large losses; cards in the other deck offered fewer rewards per trial, but were advantageous overall.
