Resting state functional connectivity in addiction: Lessons learned and a road ahead (2012, background): “…and TPN may provide a systems-level mechanistic account regarding deficits in sustained attention, performance monitoring and inhibitory control following acute abstinence from addictive drugs (Garavan and Hester, 2007; Garavan and Stout, 2005; Heishman et al., 1994; Verdejo-García et al., 2008).”
Neuropsicología de las funciones ejecutivas (2010, background): “Adicionalmente, se recomienda incluir pruebas de inhibición y flexibilidad afectiva (Verdejo-García et al., 2008), toma de decisiones (Verdejo-García y Pérez-García, 2007) e inventarios de conducta sensibles a cambios de comportamiento y personalidad habitualmente derivados de alteraciones…”
The relationship between non-suicidal self-injury and suicidality (2016, background): “…self-harming aspects, including binge eating and purging, aggression, and drinking for the purposes of coping (Anestis et al., 2007; Fischer et al., 2003; Miller et al., 2003; Lynam & Miller, 2004; Verdejo-Garcia et al., 2008), all of which are also behavioural correlates of both NSSI and suicide.”
Understanding the construct of impulsivity and its relationship to alcohol use disorders (2010, background): “This is likely due, in part, to the heterogeneous nature of the construct of impulsivity.”
Implicit Cognition and Addiction: A Tool for Explaining Paradoxical Behavior (2010, background): “…characterizing addiction may also be partly premorbid to addiction, as witnessed by the fact that impulsivity and related traits such as behavioral undercontrol are among the strongest prospective predictors of later addictive behaviors (de Wit 2009, Sher et al. 2005, Verdejo-Garcia et al. 2008).”
Cognitive Control of Drug Craving Inhibits Brain Reward Regions in Cocaine Abusers (2009, background): “…individuals exhibit impairment in response inhibition (Chambers et al., 2009) and research suggests that this may operate as a bidirectional etiological factor, since chronic drug use can impair response inhibition but also impulsivity can predispose to drug addiction (Verdejo-Garcia et al., 2008).”
Impulsive versus reflective influences on health behavior: a theoretical framework and empirical review (2008, background): “In turn, impulsivity, that is, the generalized tendency to act without deliberation, has been found to be positively associated with problematic health behavior (eg, Grano, Virtanen, Vaherta, Elovainio, & Kivimaki, 2004 ; Verdejo-Garcia, Lawrence, & Clark, 2008 ; Waldeck & Miller, 1997 ).”
Insights into the neural basis of response inhibition from cognitive and clinical neuroscience. (2009, positive): “…et al., 2007), make riskier decisions on various gambling tasks (Bartzokis et al., 2000; Monterosso et al., 2001; Bolla et al., 2003; Fishbein et al., 2005; Verdejo-Garcia et al., 2008), and amphetamine users sample less of the available information prior to making decisions (Clark et al., 2006).”
Cognitive interference elicits developmental sex differences in inhibitory control (2025, unknown): “…observed in a wide range of mental health disorders, including attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), alcohol and substance use disorders, and mood disorders (Li et al., 2021; Lipszyc and Schachar, 2010; McTeague et al., 2016, 2017; Nigg, 2001, 2017; Verdejo-García et al., 2008).”
