This ADVANCED course discusses the neuroscience behind substance misuse as it applies to prevention science. It is science intensive discussing the biology and neurocognitive pathways of the brain. It includes: The Accumulative Risk Model, Putatively Distinct Developmental Trajectories, Putative Underpinnings of Distinct Developmental Trajectories, Neurocognitive Pathways to Substance Misuse, Risk for Substance Misuse, Environmental Influences, Neurological Development, Stress Exposures and Physiological Reactivity, Cognitive and Behavioral Phenotypes, Delayed Risk for Substance Misuse, Resilience and Resistance to Substance Misuse, Neurocognitive Factors Relating to Adaptive Pathways, Neuroimaging Correlates of Adaptive Pathways, Delineating Resilience and Resistance, Methodological Approaches to Distinguish Trajectories, and the Potential for Prevention.
This course is based on the reading-based online article, Neurocognitive Precursors of Substance Misuse Corresponding to Risk, Resistance, and Resilience Pathways: Implications for Prevention Science created by Emma Jane Rose, PhD et al. in 2019.
