“…Impairment of the inhibitory executive function has been associated with a variety of negative outcomes across the lifespan. For example, decreased inhibition has been correlated with poorer math and reading comprehension skills in children (e.g., St. Clair‐Thompson & Gathercole, ), procrastination and alcohol abuse in college‐aged adults (e.g., Paz, Rosselli, & Conniff, ; Rebetez, Rochat, Barsics, & Van der Linden, ), and aggression in adults (e.g., Hoaken, Shaughnessy, & Pihl, ).…”

Most research on the cognitive effects of subtle racial discrimination among racial and ethnic minorities focuses on direct experiences of it wherein stigmatized individuals are the targets of discriminatory treatment. However, it is not necessary for people to be the direct target of discriminatory behavior to experience the negative consequences associated with it. Although exposure to discriminatory behavior is increasingly common given the accessibility of smartphones and social media, we know relatively little about how this exposure affects people's executive functioning. Here, we provide a systematic, comparative review of the extant literature on the effects of (a) personally experiencing versus (b) observing instances of subtle racial discrimination toward others on three core executive functions: inhibition, shifting, and updating. We highlight where more work is needed to understand the cognitive consequences of observing discrimination and we provide initial evidence that observing subtle discrimination impairs updating—a previously unexplored relationship. Finally, we discuss the implications of executive function impairment due to observing and experiencing subtle discrimination for long‐term outcomes, such as academic achievement, employment, and mental health.

“…A higher rate of commission error and prolonged stop-signal reaction times with intact go reaction time have been observed previously in adults with ADHD ( 47 ), and are also considered as deficits in inhibitory control in individuals with substance use disorder ( 48 ). While some imaging studies did not observe significant group differences on the behavioral level [e.g., ( 39 , 40 )], others reported a correlation between stop-signal reaction times and stopping an initiated response, and binge drinking behavior ( 49 ). It has also been suggested that deficits in task performance in individuals with AUD, e.g., an increase in omission errors and no change in reaction times ( 48 ), might not only be due to deficits in response inhibition but also due to problems related to discrimination ( 50 ).…”

“…However, our findings indicate that later components of response inhibition should be assessed (e.g., by using a Stop-Signal task) when examining consequences of impaired response inhibition or administering preclinical screening measures. It was observed in young heavy drinkers that only deficits in action cancellation were related to an increase in binge drinking in females ( 49 ). While interference inhibition did not result in significant observations when comparing clinical populations to healthy controls, directly contrasting ADHD and AUD led to significant observations in our sample.…”

Stop What You're Doing!—An fMRI Study on Comparisons of Neural Subprocesses of Response Inhibition in ADHD and Alcohol Use Disorder

Rationale: Both attention deficit-/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD) are accompanied by deficits in response inhibition. Furthermore, the prevalence of comorbidity of ADHD and AUD is high. However, there is a lack of research on whether the same neuronal subprocesses of inhibition (i.e., interference inhibition, action withholding and action cancellation) exhibit deficits in both psychiatric disorders.Methods: We examined these three neural subprocesses of response inhibition in patient groups and healthy controls: non-medicated individuals with ADHD (ADHD; N = 16), recently detoxified and abstinent individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD; N = 15), and healthy controls (HC; N = 15). A hybrid response inhibition task covering interference inhibition, action withholding, and action cancellation was applied using a 3T functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).Results: Individuals with ADHD showed an overall stronger hypoactivation in attention related brain areas compared to AUD or HC during action withholding. Further, this hypoactivation was more accentuated during action cancellation. Individuals with AUD recruited a broader network, including the striatum, compared to HC during action withholding. During action cancellation, however, they showed hypoactivation in motor regions. Additionally, specific neural activation profiles regarding group and subprocess became apparent.Conclusions: Even though deficits in response inhibition are related to both ADHD and AUD, neural activation and recruited networks during response inhibition differ regarding both neuronal subprocesses and examined groups. While a replication of this study is needed in a larger sample, the results suggest that tasks have to be carefully selected when examining neural activation patterns of response inhibition either in research on various psychiatric disorders or transdiagnostic questions.

“…Typically, they believe that binge drinking is socially acceptable at that age ( Sudhinaraset et al, 2016 ), rendering them unaware that their drinking may be problematic, or that it even impacts their cognitive functioning or self-control ( Bishop and Rodriquez Orjuela, 2018 , Probst et al, 2015 ). And yet, inhibition failures on tasks probing inhibitory control are predictive of an escalation in binge drinking, AUD severity ( Clark et al, 2017 , Claus et al, 2013 , Nigg et al, 2006 , Paz et al, 2016 , Paz et al, 2018 ), as well as relapse in cocaine dependence ( Luo et al, 2013 ).…”
