Journal ArticleDOI

Role of the anterior cingulate and medial orbitofrontal cortex in processing drug cues in cocaine addiction.

TL;DR: Results suggest that this newly developed drug Stroop fMRI task may be a sensitive biobehavioral assay of the functions recruited for the regulation of responses to salient symptom-related stimuli in drug-addicted individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is decreased prefrontal cortical sensitivity to monetary reward associated with impaired motivation and self-control in cocaine addiction?

TL;DR: Findings suggest that in cocaine addiction activation of the corticolimbic reward circuit to gradations of money is altered and the lack of a correlation between objective and subjective measures of state motivation may be indicative of disrupted perception of motivational drive, which could contribute to impairments in self-control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anterior cingulate cortex hypoactivations to an emotionally salient task in cocaine addiction

TL;DR: Emotional salience modulates ACC responses in proportion to drug use severity in drug addicted individuals and may be beneficial in enhancing top-down monitoring and emotion regulation as a strategy to reduce impulsive and compulsive behavior in addiction.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Neuropsychology of Cocaine Addiction: Recent Cocaine Use Masks Impairment

TL;DR: The results suggest that frequent/recent cocaine may mask underlying cognitive (but not mood) disturbances in individuals addicted to cocaine, and call for development of pharmacological agents targeted to enhance cognition, without negatively impacting mood.
Journal ArticleDOI

Motivated attention to cocaine and emotional cues in abstinent and current cocaine users – an ERP study

TL;DR: Results support a relatively early attention bias to cocaine stimuli in cocaine‐addicted individuals, further suggesting that recent cocaine use decreases such attention bias during later stages of processing but at the expense of deficient processing of other emotional stimuli.
