Cocaine‐related attentional bias following trauma cue exposure among cocaine dependent in‐patients with and without post‐traumatic stress disorder [PDF]
ABSTRACTAims Although the co‐occurrence of post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and cocaine dependence is associated with a wide range of negative clinical outcomes, little is known about the mechanisms that underlie this association. This study investigated one potential mechanism—attentional bias to cocaine imagery following trauma cue exposure ...
