项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Nicotine withdrawal is associated with diminished attentional cognitive processing, and nicotine administration is associated with increased attentional cognitive processing. Given that the normal aging process is associated with declines in attentional control, we propose that nicotine derived from smoking among older populations acutely ameliorates the decline in attentional control associated with aging. Thus, older individuals might find smoking more reinforcing for cognitive-attentional reasons. The role of nicotine-induced cognitive-attentional enhancement as a function of age has not yet been systematically investigated. The primary aim of the proposed research is to examine effects of nicotine satiation versus withdrawal on cognitive-attentional performance among heavy smokers as a function of the normal aging process. Younger (21 to 40 years old) and older (51 to 70 years old) smokers will be compared on an executive attention working memory task (N-back) during two laboratory sessions, following either ad lib smoking or overnight nicotine deprivation. Data analyses will focus on event- related brain potential (ERP) activity during the working memory task, as well as behavioral responses. We hypothesize that attentional control will be diminished during nicotine withdrawal, this effect will be greater among older smokers, and that this effect will be greater with increasing task difficulty. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed study will improve our understanding of the role of attentional cognitive processing in smoking behavior across the lifespan. Findings from this research may lead to the development of targeted behavioral and pharmacological treatments for older smokers.

描述（由申请方提供）：尼古丁戒断与注意力认知处理减少相关，尼古丁给药与注意力认知处理增加相关。考虑到正常的衰老过程与注意力控制的下降有关，我们认为老年人吸烟产生的尼古丁可以显著改善与衰老相关的注意力控制下降。因此，老年人可能会发现吸烟对认知注意力的影响更大。尼古丁诱导的认知注意力增强作为年龄的函数的作用尚未得到系统的研究。这项研究的主要目的是研究尼古丁饱和与戒断对重度吸烟者认知注意力表现的影响，作为正常衰老过程的函数。在两次实验室会议期间，在随意吸烟或整夜尼古丁剥夺后，比较年轻（21至40岁）和老年（51至70岁）吸烟者的执行注意力工作记忆任务（N-back）。数据分析将集中在工作记忆任务期间的事件相关脑电位（ERP）活动以及行为反应。我们假设，注意力控制将减少尼古丁戒断过程中，这种影响将在老年吸烟者中更大，这种影响将随着任务难度的增加而增加。公共卫生关系：这项研究将提高我们对注意认知过程在整个生命周期中吸烟行为中的作用的理解。这项研究的结果可能会导致针对老年吸烟者的有针对性的行为和药物治疗的发展。
