Treatment for Alcohol Use Disorder: Emotion Regulation and Brain Function
Primary Objective
This study will measure emotion regulation on several levels (self-report, behavioral, neuroimaging) in healthy adults and adults beginning AUD treatment. The adults being treated will be followed for 6 months after treatment to assess relapse.
Description
This study plans to learn more about the brain's role alcohol use problems and recovery. Prominent theories about alcohol use disorder suggest that it is a disorder of the brain. However, it remains unclear what parts of the brain work differently in alcohol use disorder. This study intends to add to the understanding of how brain function differs in individuals with alcohol use disorder relative to individuals without alcohol use disorder. We also plan to increase understanding of how treatment for alcohol use disorder changes brain function.
