“…Only non-subtracted, correct NoGo trials were analyzed in the current study (32). Since ERP measurements are more reliable when data is averaged across multiple electrodes (20,68), all ERPs were based on a frontocentral region of interest (ROI) created by averaging data from nine electrodes (E20, E12, E5, E118, E13, E6, E112, E7, E106; Figure 1B). NoGo N2 amplitude was defined as the mean amplitude in the 225 to 325 ms window post-stimuli (NoGo N2 WIN ) and NoGo P3 amplitude was defined as the mean amplitude in the 325 to 625 ms window post-stimuli (NoGo P3 WIN ).…”

“…To ensure that Go/NoGo task performance and ERP measurements were reliable, we calculated the split-half reliability by estimating correlations between the averages of odd and even trials (12,20), corrected using the Spearman-Brown formula (82) and denoted ρ SB . and PD = 88%.…”

“…In addition to self-report instruments and behavioral tasks, event-related potentials (ERPs), providing a direct measurement of the brain's post-synaptic neural activity, may be used to bridge the gap between brain and behavior. Reduced amplitude of the P3 ERP-a positive voltage deflection peaking around 300 ms after stimulus onset-has emerged as a particularly promising, heritable biobehavioral marker of behaviors characterized by trait disinhibition (18)(19)(20). However, although previous research has established P3 amplitude reduction as robustly associated with externalizing disorders and antisocial behavior, studies on MDO samples remain scarce (21).…”

“…However, the bulk of previous research has focused on the P3a and P3b components. While there is emerging evidence suggesting that reduced amplitude of the NoGo P3 component is also associated with externalizing behavior (18,20,(38)(39)(40)(41), so far, no study has been done on an inpatient MDO sample.…”

Trait Disinhibition and NoGo Event-Related Potentials in Violent Mentally Disordered Offenders and Healthy Controls

Trait disinhibition may function as a dispositional liability toward maladaptive behaviors relevant in the treatment of mentally disordered offenders (MDOs). Reduced amplitude and prolonged latency of the NoGo N2 and P3 event-related potentials have emerged as promising candidates for transdiagnostic, biobehavioral markers of trait disinhibition, yet no study has specifically investigated these two components in violent, inpatient MDOs. Here, we examined self-reported trait disinhibition, experimentally assessed response inhibition, and NoGo N2 and P3 amplitude and latency in male, violent MDOs (N = 27) and healthy controls (N = 20). MDOs had a higher degree of trait disinhibition, reduced NoGo P3 amplitude, and delayed NoGo P3 latency compared to controls. The reduced NoGo P3 amplitude and delayed NoGo P3 latency in MDOs may stem from deficits during monitoring or evaluation of behavior. NoGo P3 latency was associated with increased trait disinhibition in the whole sample, suggesting that trait disinhibition may be associated with reduced neural efficiency during later stages of outcome monitoring or evaluation. Findings for NoGo N2 amplitude and latency were small and non-robust. With several limitations in mind, this is the first study to demonstrate attenuated NoGo P3 amplitude and delayed NoGo P3 latency in violent, inpatient MDOs compared to healthy controls.

“…Maladaptively low Conscientiousness is represented within the Disinhibition domain of the AMPD [51]. Disinhibition has been linked to variability in both behavioral and neurophysiological measures of error processing and inhibitory control [52]. For example, Disinhibition is associated with a reduction in the amplitude of the P3 event-related potential, a positive-going waveform that occurs following presentation of a salient stimulus in cognitive control tasks.…”

Disinhibition and Detachment in Adolescence: A Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Perspective on the Alternative Model for Personality Disorders

Personality pathology often emerges during adolescence, but attempts to understand its neurocognitive basis have traditionally been undermined by problems associated with the categorical classification of personality disorders. In contrast, dimensional models of personality pathology, such as the Alternative Model for Personality Disorders (AMPD) in DSM-5, may provide a stronger foundation for neurobiological investigations of maladaptive individual differences in personality. As an example, we review studies of the adolescent development of reward processing and cognitive control and connect these systems to the normal personality hierarchy and to two dimensions included in the AMPD-Detachment and Disinhibition. We argue that by linking developmental changes in these systems to the AMPD, researchers will be better positioned to understand the relationship between neurocognitive development and the expression of personality pathology in adolescence and early adulthood.

We investigated psychopathy from the neurobiological perspective of reinforcement sensitivity theory (RST). In contrast to previous semantically derived self‐report scales, we operationalised RST systems neurally with evoked electroencephalography (EEG). Participants were from a community sample weighted towards externalising psychopathology. We compared the Carver & White Behavioural Inhibition System (BIS)/Behavioural Approach System (BAS) scales with EEG responses associated with RST's systems of goal conflict (aka ‘behavioural inhibition’), repulsion/outcome conflict (aka ‘fight/flight/freeze’) and attraction (aka ‘approach’). Bivariate correlations and multiple regression analysis yielded results generally consistent with past literature for associations between psychopathy and the self‐report BIS/BAS scales. There were some differences from self‐report associations with neural measures of RST. With EEG measures, (1) no meaningful associations were observed between any psychopathy scales and the attraction system; (2) affective‐interpersonal traits of psychopathy were negatively associated with goal conflict; (3) disinhibition‐behavioural traits of psychopathy were negatively associated with goal conflict but, unexpectedly, positively associated with outcome conflict. These results indicate frontal‐temporal‐limbic circuit dysfunction in psychopathy as specific domains were linked to neural deficits in goal conflict processing, but there was no evidence for deficits in attraction‐related processes.
