Tailored Inhibitory Control Training to Reverse EA-linked Deficits in Mid-life

Summary

Insufficient inhibitory control is one pathway through which early adversity is related to a range of problems including excessive alcohol use, tobacco use, and unhealthy eating. The proposed research leverages a neurally informed model of inhibitory control and how it can be improved to test the efficacy of a person-centered inhibitory control intervention in a sample of mid-life individuals with early adversity. The knowledge obtained by this study could be scaled into a flexible, low-cost, and wide-ranging intervention to remediate some of the effects of early adversity on inhibitory control and thus a number of prevalent health risking behaviors.

Conditions

  • Smoking
  • Alcohol Drinking
  • Prescription Drug Abuse
  • Substance-Related Disorders
  • Oral Intake Reduced

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Person-centered inhibitory control training

A brief, computer-based, multisession training aimed at increasing the connection between environmental risk cues (e.g., cigarettes) and engagement of the brain network for inhibitory control.

BEHAVIORAL

Active behavioral response training

A brief computer-based, multisession training aimed at training behavioral responses to personalized environmental risk cues (e.g., cigarettes) that does not engage the inhibitory control network of the brain.
