Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Background: Cocaine dependence is associated with cognitive control deficits. Here, we apply a Bayesian model of stop-signal task (SST) performance to further characterize these deficits in a theory-driven framework. Methods: A “sequential effect” is commonly observed in SST: encounters with a stop trial tend to prolong reaction time (RT) on subsequent go trials. The Bayesian model accounts for this by assuming that each stop/go trial increases/decreases the subject’s belief about the likelihood of encountering a subsequent stop trial, P(stop), and that P(stop) strategically modulates RT accordingly. Parameters of the model were individually fit, and compared between cocaine-dependent (CD, n = 51) and healthy control (HC, n = 57) groups, matched in age and gender and both demonstrating a significant sequential effect (p \textless 0.05). Model-free measures of sequential effect, post-error slowing (PES) and post-stop slowing (PSS), were also compared across groups. Results: By comparing individually fit Bayesian model parameters, CD were found to utilize a smaller time window of past experiences to anticipate P(stop) (p \textless 0.003), as well as showing less behavioral adjustment in response to P(stop) (p \textless 0.015). PES (p = 0.19) and PSS (p = 0.14) did not show group differences and were less correlated with the Bayesian account of sequential effect in CD than in HC. Conclusions: Cocaine dependence is associated with the utilization of less contextual information to anticipate future events and decreased behavioral adaptation in response to changes in such anticipation. These findings constitute a novel contribution by providing a computationally more refined and statistically more sensitive account of altered cognitive control in cocaine addiction.
