The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study was launched by the Collaborative Research on Addiction at NIH (CRAN) in 2016 and is now supported by 11 other federal agencies and centers. The six primary aims of ABCD were to: Develop national standards for normal brain development for youth ages 9-19 years; Determine individual developmental trajectories (e.g., brain, cognitive, and emotional development, academic progress), and identify factors that can influence (protectively or adversely) these developmental patterns; Examine the roles of genetic, cultural, and environmental factors in youth development, as well as their interactions; Evaluate the effects of health, physical activity, sleep, social activities, sports injuries, and other experiences on brain and developmental outcomes; Assess the onset and progression of mental health (MH) disorders and factors that influence their course and severity as well as the relations between MH and substance use (SU); Determine how substance exposure patterns affect developmental outcomes, including brain development, and vice versa.
