Abstract

Abstract Purpose of Review This systematic review focuses on stimuli-specific inhibitory control as measured with variations of Go/No-Go, Stroop, and Stop-Signal tasks including addiction-related cues. We aimed to identify whether individuals with tendencies towards behavioural addictions show stimulus-specific reductions in inhibitory control as assumed by recent theoretical models. Recent Findings The systematic literature search yielded 31 studies eligible for inclusion. Most studies focused on gaming disorder and problematic social networks use. Variants of the Go/No-Go task were most frequently used measures of inhibitory control. Findings on stimuli-specific reductions in inhibitory control are mixed. The studies differ considerably regarding used measures, sample characteristics, and study designs. Summary The large methodological heterogeneity across studies makes it almost impossible to draw any clear conclusions. Study designs, task characteristics, stimuli, and diagnostic instruments should be more standardised and used more consistently. We recommend to recruit clinical samples for studying stimuli-specific inhibitory control in behavioural addictions.

成瘾行为引起的障碍中的刺激特异性抑制控制:当前证据的回顾和方法挑战的讨论

本系统综述主要关注刺激特异性抑制控制，通过Go/No-Go、Stroop和Stop-Signal任务(包括成瘾相关线索)的变化来测量。我们的目的是确定是否有行为成瘾倾向的个体表现出刺激特异性抑制控制的减少，正如最近的理论模型所假设的那样。系统的文献检索产生31项符合纳入条件的研究。大多数研究集中在游戏障碍和有问题的社交网络使用上。Go/No-Go任务的变体是最常用的抑制控制措施。刺激特异性抑制控制减少的结果是混合的。这些研究在使用的测量方法、样本特征和研究设计方面存在很大差异。研究方法的巨大异质性使得几乎不可能得出任何明确的结论。研究设计、任务特征、刺激和诊断工具应该更加标准化，使用更加一致。我们建议招募临床样本来研究行为成瘾中的刺激特异性抑制控制。

期刊介绍： This journal focuses on the prevention, assessment and diagnosis, and treatment of addiction. Designed for physicians and other mental health professionals who need to keep up-to-date with the latest research, Current Addiction Reports offers expert reviews on the most recent and important research in addiction. We accomplish this by appointing leaders in the field to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas and disciplines, such asAlcoholTobaccoStimulants, cannabis, and club drugsBehavioral addictionsGender disparities in addictionComorbid psychiatric disorders and addictionSubstance abuse disorders and HIVSection Editors, in turn, select the most pressing topics as well as experts to evaluate the latest research, report on any controversial discoveries or hypotheses of interest, and ultimately bring readers up-to-date on the topic. Articles represent interdisciplinary endeavors with research from fields such as psychiatry, psychology, pharmacology, epidemiology, and neuroscience.Additionally, an international Editorial Board—representing a range of disciplines within addiction medicine—ensures that the journal content includes current, emerging research and suggests articles of special interest to their country or region.
