Objective: There have been no well-controlled and well-powered comparative trials of topiramate with other pharmacotherapies for alcohol use disorder (AUD), such as naltrexone. Moreover, the literature is mixed on effects two polymorphisms—rs2832407 (in GRIK1) rs1799971 OPRM1)—on response to naltrexone, respectively. The authors sought examine effectiveness naltrexone in improving outcomes AUD role rs2832407 polymorphisms, respectively, these medications. Methods: In a 12-week, double-blind,...
Abstract Goal-directed behavior is dependent upon the ability to detect errors and implement appropriate posterror adjustments. Accordingly, several studies have explored neural activity underlying error-monitoring processes, identifying insula cortex as crucial for error awareness reporting mixed findings with respect anterior cingulate (ACC). Variable patterns of activation previously been attributed insufficient statistical power. We therefore sought clarify correlates in a large...
Introduction Ambulatory assessment of executive function – particularly in the form working memory (WM) is increasingly common. Few studies to date, however, have also incorporated ambulatory measures inhibitory control. Critically, extended within-person reliability tasks tapping each these constructs has been largely overlooked.
Considered a facet of behavioral impulsivity, response inhibition facilitates adaptive and goal-directed behavior. It is often assessed using the Stop-Signal Task (SST), which presented on stand-alone computers under controlled laboratory conditions. Sample size may consequently be function cost or time sample diversity constrained to those willing able attend laboratory. Statistical power generalizability results might, in turn, impacted. Such limitations potentially overcome via...
Introduction Raven’s Advanced Progressive Matrices (APM) are frequently utilized in clinical and experimental settings to index intellectual capacity. As the APM is a relatively long assessment, abridged versions of test have been proposed. The psychometric properties an untimed 12-item received some consideration literature, but validity explorations limited. Moreover, both reliability timed not previously examined.Method We considered (Study 1; N = 608; Mage 27.89, SD 11.68) 2; 479; 20.93,...
Worldwide, alcohol use is a major contributor to the burden of disease and mortality. A sizeable literature suggests that brief web-based interventions incorporate personalized normative and/or health consequences feedback are effective at reducing intake. The relative efficacy an intervention also includes individualized about brain has not been examined, nor utility integrating smartphone app component.Participants (N = 436, Mage 21.27) completed baseline protocols (n 178 recorded via for...
Abstract Background Theoretical models of alcohol use posit that individuals consume to ameliorate negative affect or heighten positive affect. It is important, however, consider the influence factors may determine an individual's tendency excessive amounts under and circumstances. Thus, current study examined a large sample young adults clarify whether predict total consumption on drinking days facets impulsivity moderate these relationships. Methods Six‐hundred ninety‐three ( M age = 19.71...
Topiramate has been found to be effective in reducing alcohol use and may also attenuate anxiety severity patients with disorder (AUD). This study compared the neural response of treatment-seeking AUD on either topiramate or naltrexone during an anticipatory task. Participants were 42 who randomized receive (n = 23; titrated dose up 200 mg/day) 19; 50 for 12-weeks as part a larger controlled trial. Following 6 weeks treatment, participants completed task functional magnetic resonance imaging...

Cannabis is the third most commonly used drug worldwide, with studies suggesting a deleterious effect on some aspects of performance monitoring. It unknown, however, whether diminished error awareness influences adaptive behaviour in cannabis users. Therefore, this study examined learning from errors users.Thirty-six chronic users (Mage = 23.81 years; female, 36%) and 34 controls 21.53 76%) completed Go/No-Go task that allowed participants to learn adapt their behaviour. Multilevel models...
