摘要:
摘要: Criminal offenders who show repeated impulsive violent behavior are often described as having impairments in both inhibitory control and error processing. A sample of such offenders was compared with controls using event-related potentials recorded during the performance of a combined flanker and stop-signal task with the aim of investigating the underlying mechanisms that may contribute toward such violent behavior by indexing conflict monitoring, error detection, and post-error processing. The results obtained indicated lower amplitude of the stop-signal N2 component for successfully inhibited trials, reflecting different degrees of inhibition in impulsive violent offenders, as well as a reduced Pe component over the parietal area, an indication of reduced awareness of errors. This is consistent with the behavioral data indicating a lack of post-error slowing compared with the control group. This suggests that these offenders have problems with error awareness, subjective error assessment processes, and the adjustment of future behavior. 其他題名: Neuroreport 出版者: Hagerstown, MD: Wolters Kluwer Health | Lippincott Williams & Wilkins 出版日期: 2014-09-10 出處: Neuroreport, 2014-09, Vol.25 (13), p.1024-1029 版權: 2014 Wolters Kluwer Health | Lippincott Williams & Wilkins 版權: 2015 INIST-CNRS 識別號: ISSN: 0959-4965 識別號: ISSN: 1473-558X 識別號: EISSN: 1473-558X 識別號: DOI: 10.1097/WNR.0000000000000212 識別號: PMID: 25026532
