Reduced Behavioral and Neural Activation in Stimulant Users To Different Error Rates During Decision-Making

摘要

BackgroundBehavioral processes and neural systems dysfunctions that put individuals at risk for drug use in general—and stimulant use in particular—are poorly understood. Here, the hypothesis is examined that stimulant-using subjects adjust their decision-making less as a function of errors as evidenced by attenuated behavioral and neural substrate activation patterns.
