Acute effects of caffeine on threat-selective attention: Moderation by anxiety and EEG theta/beta ratio
BackgroundSpontaneous EEG theta/beta ratio (TBR) probably marks prefrontal cortical (PFC) executive control, and its regulation of attentional threat-bias. Caffeine at moderate doses may strengthen executive control through increased PFC catecholamine action, dependent on basal PFC function.GoalTo test if caffeine affects threat-bias, moderated by baseline frontal TBR and trait-anxiety.MethodsA pictorial emotional Stroop task was used to assess threat-bias in forty female participants in a cross-over, double-blind study after placebo and 200 mg caffeine.ResultsAt baseline and after placebo, comparable relations were observed for negative pictures: high TBR was related to low threat-bias in low trait-anxious people. Caffeine had opposite effects on threat-bias in low trait-anxious people with low and high TBR.ConclusionsThis further supports TBR as a marker of executive control and highlights the importance of taking baseline executive function into consideration when studying effects of caffeine on executive functions.FSW - Self-regulation models for health behavior and psychopathology - ou
