About this study

The study to explore the development of these abilities with age, and called "Development of the conflict detection during the reasoning - Decor" will take place at CYCERON center and will include two groups of 22 participants: adolescents and young adults (N = 44). More specifically, this study aims to compare the changes in the brain of adolescents and young adults when conducting reasoning tasks for which there may be a cognitive conflict. Both groups of participants then spend an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) focused on the brain and in which they will carry out two classic tasks covering the main areas of reasoning (probabilistic and economic). Each of these tasks will be manipulated to include, or not, of making information call intuition to create or not a conflict between the correct answer (logic, normative) and biased response (intuitive, heuristic). Because of the major implication of this brain region in cognitive inhibition processes [of intuitive answer], measured brain activity in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) during both tasks version "with" or "no" conflict will be compared between groups. To better understand the links between the development of the CCA from adolescence to adulthood and conflict detection, activity measurements will be correlated with a part in morphometric measurements taken from the same area (volume Substance Grise - SG; characteristics of cortical sulci) and secondly to cognitive measures (executive functions - inhibitory control). This cross-sectional study focused on two age groups: 11-15 years and 19-25 years. For each age group, the participation of men / boys and women / girls will be balanced up.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. brain activity in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC )

    measured brain activity in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC ) of healthy volunteers aged 11 to 15 participants , and from 19 to 25 years over two classic version reasoning tasks "with" and "without" cognitive conflict and realized on an MRI

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. the activity recorded in the whole brain

    the activity recorded in the whole brain of healthy volunteers aged 11 to 15 participants , and 19 to 25 years in two classic version reasoning tasks "with" and "without" cognitive conflict and carried out during the examination MRI

    Measured: Day 1

  2. response time

    response time recorded version "with" versus "without" cognitive conflict , participants in healthy volunteers aged 11-15 and 19-25 years in two classic reasoning tasks performed during an MRI

    Measured: Day 1

  3. brain activity measured in the CSF in two classic reasoning tasks

    Compare brain activity measured in the CSF in two classic reasoning tasks in both " with" and "without" conflict for each of the healthy volunteers participating groups

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MRI in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Olivier EO Etard, MCU-PH (02.31.06.45.26 ext. + 33, etard-o@chu-caen.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

brain activity in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC ) (time frame: Day 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Jun 2016.
