“…One VET trial was effective on craving and cigarette consumption reduction (controlled on exhaled CO concentration) after 5 weekly sessions on 48 subjects with low to moderate nicotine dependence in association with a tobacco education group (Pericot-Valverde et al, 2014). In a second trial, the team showed an association between craving reduction and younger age, higher cigarette consumption, impulsivity and depressive symptoms with the same exposure protocol (Pericot-Valverde et al, 2015). However, 1 CT and 1 RCT (Park et al, 2014;Pericot-Valverde et al, 2019) found mixed results (Pericot-Valverde et al, 2019).…”

“…Alcohol craving is defined as the irrepressible desire to consume the substance and is considered as an important element in the development of alcoholism (Robinson and Berridge, 1993;Field and Cox, 2008) and alcohol relapse (Evren et al, 2010;Sinha et al, 2011). Many studies have investigated how various cues can increase alcohol craving and therefore to trigger alcohol relapse (Pericot-Valverde et al, 2015). However, most cue reactivity studies suffer from several limitations: the experimental paradigms in laboratory settings usually involve behaviors that are far from natural, often use simple stimuli (words or objects) on a computer screen, only allowing for a reduced complexity of behavioral interactions, therefore reducing the generalization of the results to real-life situations (Field and Cox, 2008;Field et al, 2016).…”

The development of new technologies, and more specifically the opportunity to immerse participants in virtual controlled environments, provides a new ecological framework for researchers to study complex behaviors. This experiment aimed to compare post-immersion craving in occasional and heavy alcohol drinkers. Twenty-two occasional drinkers and eighteen heavy drinkers were recruited and immersed in a virtual bar, including alcoholic beverages. After the exposure, heavy drinkers reported a significantly higher craving than occasional drinkers. Post-immersion alcohol craving was significantly related to the levels of perceived ecological validity of the virtual environment. Finally, a moderation analysis suggested that the levels of craving more strongly increased with perceived ecological validity in heavy drinkers than in occasional drinkers. Therefore, the perceived ecological validity was an important experimental parameter to study craving in a virtual environment. These results further suggested that virtual reality might be a useful tool for both the scientific study of alcohol addiction and the treatment of alcohol dependence and relapse.

Wenngleich Ansätze der Stimulus-Expositions-Intervention im Suchtkontext kritisch diskutiert werden [Marissen et al, 2007;Mellentin et al, 2017;Park et al, 2015], könnten solche Techniken ergänzend genutzt werden, um Patienten dabei zu helfen, das situative Craving besser zu regulieren [Pericot-Valverde et al, 2015]. …”

Verhaltenssüchte sind gekennzeichnet durch das wiederholte Ausüben eines spezifischen Verhaltens unter Missachtung negativer Konsequenzen und des erlebten Kontrollverlusts im Alltag. Zentrale Konstrukte sind dabei Reizreaktivität und Craving, die aus der substanzbezogenen Suchtforschung auch durch aktuelle theoretische Modelle auf die Verhaltenssüchte übertragen werden. Dieser Artikel gibt einen Überblick über theoretische und empirische Arbeiten, die konsistent die Relevanz von Reizreaktivität und Craving als Schlüsselkonzepte auf subjektiver, peripherphysiologischer und neuraler Ebene bei der Entwicklung und Aufrechterhaltung spezifischer Verhaltenssüchte unterstreichen. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt wird hierbei auf spezifische Internetnutzungsstörungen und die bisherigen empirischen Befunde gelegt. Aus den dargestellten Erkenntnissen werden Empfehlungen für therapeutische Konzepte abgeleitet, die vor allem Reizreaktivität und Craving in den Fokus rücken sollten. Die Wirksamkeit dieser Ansätze sollte in zukünftigen Studien systematisch zur Optimierung therapeutischer Interventionen im Rahmen der Behandlung von Verhaltenssüchten überprüft werden.
