Behavioral Addiction Clinical Trial
Official title:
Study BANCO2: Behavioral Addictions and Related NeuroCOgnitive Aspects : Monocentric, Prospective, Controlled, Open-label Study Conducted With a Sample of Patients With Behavioural Addiction
Improving knowledge about behavioural addictions is a real public health issue. The
etiopathogenic model of behavioural addictions is multifactorial, with various risk and
vulnerability factors, involved in the initiation and maintenance of the disorders. Among
these factors, neurocognitive alterations associated with behavioural addictions has recently
aroused interest among researchers.
To our knowledge, there is no work wich compared several behavioural addictions with each
other on a neurocognitive level. Moreover, neurocognitive data concerning certain behavioural
addictions (such as sexual addiction) is almost non-existent. However, understanding the
neurocognitive profiles of these patients would allow the investigators, on the one hand, to
reinforce the existing literature and improve our understanding of the global process of
addiction, and on the other hand, to propose alternative approaches to its management, taking
into account the neurocognitive difficulties of the patients.
The investigators therefore propose to explore the neurocognitive alterations of patients
suffering from several behavioural addiction (sexual addiction, excessive use of video games
and eating disorders with bulimia episodes), by comparing them with each other, to matched
healthy control groups and to a recognized behavioural addiction (gambling disorder; data
from the BANCO study - NCT03202290).
