TLDR
It is argued that delay discounting is a trans-disease process, undergirded by an imbalance between two competing neurobehavioral decision systems.

Inhibition and impulsivity: Behavioral and neural basis of response control

TL;DR: This review will review the current models of behavioral inhibition along with their expression via underlying brain regions, including those involved in the activation of the brain's emergency 'brake' operation, those engaged in more controlled and sustained inhibitory processes and other ancillary executive functions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Steep delay discounting and addictive behavior: a meta‐analysis of continuous associations

TL;DR: Delayed reward discounting is associated robustly with continuous measures of addiction severity and quantity-frequency and this relation is generally robust across type of addictive behavior and delayed Reward discounting assessment modality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterizing a psychiatric symptom dimension related to deficits in goal-directed control

TL;DR: Using large-scale online assessment of psychiatric symptoms and neurocognitive performance in two independent general-population samples, it was found that deficits in goal-directed control were most strongly associated with a symptom dimension comprising compulsive behavior and intrusive thought.
Journal ArticleDOI

The behavioral- and neuro-economic process of temporal discounting: A candidate behavioral marker of addiction

TL;DR: Initial evidence supports temporal discounting as a candidate behavioral marker for addiction and suggests that it acts as a gauge of addiction severity, correlates with all stages of addiction development, and changes with effective treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adolescent neurocognitive development and impacts of substance use: Overview of the adolescent brain cognitive development (ABCD) baseline neurocognition battery.

TL;DR: The rationale for ABC’lected measures of neurocognition is detailed, preliminary descriptive data on an initial sample of 2299 participants are presented, and a context for how this large-scale project can inform the understanding of adolescent neurodevelopment is provided.

The michigan alcoholism screening test: the quest for a new diagnostic instrument

TL;DR: The MAST responses of 15 subjects who were found to be alcoholic in the record search were analyzed to determine where the screening failures had occurred and recommendations are made for reducing the number of such "falsė negatives."

The South Oaks Gambling Screen (SOGS): a new instrument for the identification of pathological gamblers

TL;DR: The instrument correlates well with the criteria of the revised version of DSM-III (DSM-III-R), and offers a convenient means to screen clinical populations of alcoholics and drug abusers, as well as general populations, for pathological gambling.

Separate Neural Systems Value Immediate and Delayed Monetary Rewards

TL;DR: The authors examined the neural correlates of time discounting while subjects made a series of choices between monetary reward options that varied by delay to delivery and demonstrated that two separate systems are involved in such decisions.

Decision making, impulse control and loss of willpower to resist drugs: a neurocognitive perspective

TL;DR: It is argued that addicted people become unable to make drug-use choices on the basis of long-term outcome, and a neural framework is proposed that explains this myopia for future consequences.
