Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for the Treatment of Cocaine Addiction: A Systematic Review.

Long-term cocaine use is associated with cognitive deficits and neuro-psychiatric pathologies. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an emerging therapeutic strategy relating to changes in brain activity. It stimulates the prefrontal cortex and is involved in inhibitory cognitive control, decision making and care.

[Why and with what intention did they do it? Parents' and adolescents' attributions about family conflicts].

Causal (locus, stability, and controllability) and intentional (positive, negative, and neutral) attributions about family conflict situations reported by father, mother, and adolescent were studied in a sample of 270 two-parent families according to the type of conflict (upsetting to adolescent or upsetting to parents). The relationships between attributions and use of strategies in conflict resolution (negotiation, dominance, and indifference) were also examined. Results indicated that, as compared to adolescents, parents blamed themselves less for the conflict and perceived it as less controllable, whereas adolescents (especially girls) perceived a more benevolent intention than parents (especially mothers).
