Sex Differences, Cognitive Training & Emotion Processing

University of Florida·interventional·Posted May 3, 2017·Updated May 31, 2025

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Affective Training and Neutral Training for Alcohol Use Disorder. Completed, enrolled 82 participants across 5 sites.

Detailed Summary

This pilot project addresses two understudied questions related to neurocognitive deficits observed in treatment-seeking alcoholics. First, whether cognitive training improves performance and outcomes in alcoholics, and whether men and women differ in their response to this training. The second is whether directed training using affective materials (e.g., emotional faces) is differentially effective compared to that using traditional (i.e., neutral) stimuli.
