Substance Abuse May Curb Body's Stress Reactions

ate increase preceding the noise.

The findings are consistent with previous research suggesting that alcohol and substance abuse develop, in part, from defects in individuals' "inhibitory control system," leaving them prone to impulsive behavior. Good modulators in the experiment were able to take advantage of the signal preceding the noise blast and remain relatively unaroused, as reflected in their skin conductance readings. The poor modulators, in contrast, became more aroused in the face of the predictable noise blast.

The research was supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health and an Eva O. Miller Fellowship.
