Abstract:
Les différentes théories de l’impulsivité suggèrent que la présence plus prononcée de ce trait de personnalité est liée à une plus grande susceptibilité à la distraction. Une distractibilité accrue pourrait être particulièrement problématique dans les environnements caractérisés par la présence de bruits ambiants comme les bureaux à aire ouverte. La recherche montre notamment que les conversations en arrière-plan sont dérangeantes, plus spécifiquement les demilogues, ces conversations téléphoniques où un seul interlocuteur est entendu. Ainsi, la présente étude vise à vérifier si les individus plus impulsifs sont plus sensibles à l’effet de demilogue que ceux moins impulsifs. Pour ce faire, 60 adultes effectuent une tâche de bureau informatisée écologique en présence d’un demilogue, d’un dialogue (où les deux interlocuteurs peuvent être entendus) ou en silence. À l’aide de deux mesures auto-rapportées de l’impulsivité, les participants sont groupés selon leur niveau d’impulsivité : faible ou élevé. Les résultats montrent une diminution de la performance en présence de dialogue et de demilogue, sans égard au niveau d’impulsivité. La sensibilité à l’effet de demilogue n’est donc pas influencée par le niveau d’impulsivité. Ces résultats vont à l’encontre des théories existantes, remettant ainsi en question l’association entre impulsivité et distractibilité.

Abstract:
Contexte scientifique et objectifLes troubles attentionnels ne font pas partie des critères diagnostiques actuels de l’autisme. Pourtant, son intégration au sein du trouble du spectre autistique (TSA) ou sa considération en tant qu’élément comorbide est encore à ce jour débattue. Cette étude a pour objectif l’observation des fonctions attentionnelles d’enfants avec un TSA au moyen de trois situations d’évaluation différentes : test papier crayon, informatique et pour la première fois à notre connaissance un outil de réalité virtuelle.Matériels et méthodesÉvaluation des performances attentionnelles et de l’inhibition de 17 enfants avec un TSA sans retard mental comparés à une population contrôle de 17 enfants appariés en âge et sexe, au travers d’une épreuve écrite d’attention soutenue (R. Zazzo & al., 1969), de trois épreuves informatisées évaluant l’inhibition, la distractibilité et l’attention soutenue (KITAP, P. Zimmermann & al., 2002) ainsi qu’une épreuve de type CPT évaluant l’attention soutenue grâce à un paradigme go/no go mis en présence de distracteurs au sein d’un environnement de classe virtuelle (A. Rizzo & al., 2006).RésultatsAu travers des trois situations d’évaluation, les enfants avec un TSA font plus d’erreurs et d’omissions que les enfants contrôles (p < 0,05). Leurs capacités d’inhibition tendent à être altérées mais de manière non significative dans l’évaluation informatisée (p = 0,1). Nous retrouvons des corrélations positives significatives entre chaque évaluation fonctionnelle réalisée (p < 0,05) hormis entre l’épreuve écrite et de réalité virtuelle (p = 0,09).Conclusions et perspectivesCes résultats sont en faveur de l’hypothèse d’un profil attentionnel commun au sein du TSA incluant altération de l’attention soutenue et distractibilité. Concernant l’inhibition, nos résultats s’avèrent moins concluant, en accord avec les données actuelles de la littérature. Les corrélations positives retrouvées entre nos trois situations d’évaluations suggèrent l’existence de bénéfices potentiels que pourraient apporter les outils de réalité virtuelle dans l’évaluation fonctionnelle des enfants présentant un TSA.

Abstract:
La dépression mixte correspond à un état dépressif où coexistent des éléments d’excitation de la lignée hypomaniaque. Si le tableau a déjà été décrit par les auteurs classiques, il a été remis à jour depuis les années 1990 et notamment par Koukopoulos. Cependant, jusqu’alors, les classifications internationales ignoraient totalement ce tableau puisque les critères du DSM-IV pour un état mixte étaient particulièrement étroits, requérant la présence d’un plein syndrome maniaque associé à un plein syndrome dépressif. La conséquence est une carence d’études sur la question et des incertitudes sur les principes de prise en charge. Le DSM 5 a annoncé et mis en œuvre un changement dans l’approche des états mixtes, et permettant notamment un diagnostic de dépression mixte : à un diagnostic d’épisode dépressif peut être associé un « spécificateur de caractéristiques mixtes ». Il requiert la présence de trois symptômes maniaques en plus de critères pour un épisode dépressif majeur. Mais sont exclus de la liste des symptômes maniaques l’agitation, l’irritabilité et la distractibilité : ils sont considérés pouvant être à part entière des symptômes de dépression. Nous passons en revue les arguments issus de la littérature suggérant que cette définition des dépressions mixtes est encore probablement trop restrictive, inadaptée par rapport à la réalité clinique, et présentant un certain nombre de contradictions. Ainsi, nous argumentons que ces nouveaux critères n’apportent pas plus de clarté dans le diagnostic de dépression mixte, et ne permettent pas d’améliorer ce diagnostic souvent méconnu. Cela pourrait avoir des incidences sur l’avancée des connaissances sur la caractérisation clinique, la thérapeutique et le pronostic des dépressions mixtes.

Abstract:
La dépression mixte correspond à un syndrome dépressif avec des éléments d’activation psychomotrice de la lignée hypomaniaque. Cette situation pathologique reste mal connue des cliniciens alors qu’elle est présente chez 10 à 20 % des patients dépressifs. Sa faible reconnaissance a été probablement liée à l’absence de ce concept dans les classifications internationales. Le DSM-5 a proposé une refonte de la définition des états mixtes, dépassant une conception particulièrement restrictive dans le DSM-IV. Des « caractéristiques mixtes » peuvent servir de spécificateur pour un épisode de trouble de l’humeur, dépressif ou maniaque. La dépression avec caractéristique mixte est définie par la présence de trois symptômes de la lignée maniaque associée à la dépression, hors agitation, distractibilité ou irritabilité. L’approche proposée par le DSM-5 manque de cohérence clinique et est finalement assez difficile à appliquer. Surtout elle ne permet pas d’identifier la majorité des dépressions mixtes. En effet les formes les plus fréquentes bien décrites dans les travaux de Koukopoulos ou Bennazzi se caractérisent par des symptômes hypomanes peu spécifiques comme l’irritabilité et l’agitation psychomotrice (ou parfois surtout l’absence de ralentissement psychomoteur) et des symptômes hypomanes limités à l’activation psychique qui s’exprime notamment à travers la tachypsychie subjective (avec des caractéristiques phénoménologiques différentes de celle de l’hypomanie) et la pression du discours. Les patients avec une dépression mixte sont particulièrement à risque de conduites suicidaires, d’abus de substances mais surtout de résistance thérapeutique car, même si on manque d’essais cliniques à leur sujet, ces patients non seulement nécessitent la prescription de thymorégulateurs mais aussi le plus souvent un arrêt des antidépresseurs qui ont souvent induit le caractère mixte de la dépression.

Abstract:
Purpose This study investigated the relation among speech-language dissociations, attentional distractibility, and childhood stuttering. Method Participants were 82 preschool-age children who stutter (CWS) and 120 who do not stutter (CWNS). Correlation-based statistics (Bates, Appelbaum, Salcedo, Saygin, & Pizzamiglio, 2003) identified dissociations across 5 norm-based speech-language subtests. The Behavioral Style Questionnaire Distractibility subscale measured attentional distractibility. Analyses addressed (a) between-groups differences in the number of children exhibiting speech-language dissociations; (b) between-groups distractibility differences; (c) the relation between distractibility and speech-language dissociations; and (d) whether interactions between distractibility and dissociations predicted the frequency of total, stuttered, and nonstuttered disfluencies. Results More preschool-age CWS exhibited speech-language dissociations compared with CWNS, and more boys exhibited dissociations compared with girls. In addition, male CWS were less distractible than female CWS and female CWNS. For CWS, but not CWNS, less distractibility (i.e., greater attention) was associated with more speech-language dissociations. Last, interactions between distractibility and dissociations did not predict speech disfluencies in CWS or CWNS. Conclusions The present findings suggest that for preschool-age CWS, attentional processes are associated with speech-language dissociations. Future investigations are warranted to better understand the directionality of effect of this association (e.g., inefficient attentional processes → speech-language dissociations vs. inefficient attentional processes ← speech-language dissociations).

Abstract:
Background. Saccadic distractibility, as measured by the antisaccade task, has attracted attention as a putative endophenotypic marker for schizophrenia. Some studies have suggested that this measure is elevated in the unaffected relatives of schizophrenia patients. However, recent studies have called this into question and the topic remains controversial.Method. Saccadic distractibility was measured in 53 patients with DSM-IV schizophrenia, 80 unaffected first-degree relatives and 41 unaffected controls.Results. Schizophrenia patients performed worse than relatives and controls combined (p<0·00001), but relatives did not differ significantly from controls. Performance in multiply affected families was no worse than that in singly affected families. Relatives with a high presumed genetic risk for schizophrenia performed no worse than other relatives. The performance of the patients did not predict that of their relatives.Conclusions. These results demonstrate that saccadic distractibility is strongly associated with disease status but not with genetic loading for schizophrenia. We conclude that saccadic distractibility is unlikely to be useful as an endophenotypic marker in schizophrenia.

Abstract:
Gordon Diagnostic System and WISC–III scores for clinic-referred 6-to 16-yr.-olds (184 with ADHD Combined Type and 46 without ADHD) were analyzed to evaluate the combination of scores and cutpoints that maximized diagnostic accuracy. Using an “ADHD cutpoint” of IQ minus the GDS Composite score ≥ 13, 87.8% of the children were correctly identified as having or not having ADHD. IQ minus Freedom from Distractibility >0 yielded 73.5% accuracy. When the two measures were combined to create new criteria (IQ minus GDS Composite ≥ 13 or IQ minus Freedom from Distractibility ≥ 11), diagnostic accuracy increased to 90.9% and negative predictive power improved substantially Diagnostic agreement between the Gordon Diagnostic System and Freedom from Distractibility was 70%, suggesting that the two tests measure both similar and unique traits.

Abstract:
This preliminary study aimed to understand the effects of an autonomous mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) on mindlessness propensities: rumination, automatic pilot functioning, and attentional distractibility. The ecological momentary assessment was completed by community participants assigned to two nonrandomized groups: an experimental group (n = 45) that practiced 20-minute daily mindfulness meditation for 42 days and a control group (n = 44) that was on the waiting list for the MBI. All participants completed a self-assessment on rumination and mindlessness propensities twice a day. The MBI led to a favorable gradual decrease in automatic pilot functioning and attentional distractibility. Rumination evolved in three stages: a rapid decrease during the first week, a stabilization phase between the 10th and 30th days, and an additional decrease after 30 days of practice. This innovative study provides a promising perspective regarding rumination, automatic pilot functioning, and attentional distractibility dynamic trajectories over the course of an MBI.

Abstract:
Portable media devices are ubiquitous and their use has become a core component of many people’s daily experience, but to what effect? In this paper, the authors review research on the ways in which media use and multitasking relate to distraction, distractibility and impulsivity. They review recent research on the effects of media multitasking on driving, walking, work, and academic performance. The authors discuss earlier research concerning the nature of media’s impact on attention and review cognitive and neuropsychological findings on the effects of divided attention. Research provides clear evidence that mobile media use is distracting, with consequences for safety, efficiency and learning. Greater use of media is correlated with higher levels of trait impulsivity and distractibility, but the direction of causality has not been established. Individuals may become more skilled at media multitasking over time, but intervention is currently required to improve the safe and effective use of mobile media.

Abstract:
Objective: This study investigated age-related changes in sustained attention in children with ADHD and in their typically developed peers. Method: The study used a Continuous Performance Test (CPT) that includes visual and auditory stimuli serving as distractors. The rate of omission errors was used as a measurement of difficulty in sustained attention. Participants were children and adolescents aged 7 to 18 years (478 with ADHD and 361 without ADHD). Results: Both groups of adolescents (with and without ADHD) showed reduced distractibility than younger children from the same group. However, distractibility tended to diminish in non-ADHD adolescents, but not in adolescents with ADHD. Conclusion: Although part of the difficulties in ADHD could be explained by developmental delay that improves with time, other deficits, such as increased distractibility causing more omission errors, do not show a clear developmental trajectory. The results suggest that deficits in inhibitory control might be the core of ADHD.

Abstract:
An experiment is described in which the relative distractibility of two species of murid rodent, Acomys cahvrinus and Mus musculus, was compared. On the basis of observations derived from our previous studies of exploratory behaviour in males of these two species, we predicted that Mus would show higher levels of distractibility when presented an unexpected, novel stimulus than would Acomys. Distractibility was measured using a novel stimulus placed on the wall of a runway along which the animals had been trained to run to a food reward. The hypothesis was not supported, at least for males; indeed, male Acomys were more easily distracted from the runway task by introduction of the novel stimulus than male Mus. Among females, however, the species difference was reversed for female Mus were highly responsive to the novel stimulus. The most significant difference shown in this experiment appears, however, to be that between male and female Mus, since male Mus showed relatively little response to the stimulus change. The results are discussed in relation to possible hormone differences and differences between the species, in responses to novelty.

Abstract:
SynopsisRecent research has shown that some patients with schizophrenia have a severe impairment in the suppression of reflexive saccadic eye movements in the ANTI-saccade task. This saccadic distractibility has previously been found in patients with lesions of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, implicating an abnormality of prefrontal cortex. The objective of the present study was to determine the contribution of these and other areas to the ANTI-saccadic abnormality in schizophrenia by functional neuroimaging. Using 99mtechnetium-HMPAO high resolution multidetector single-photon emission tomography, regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) during performance of the ANTI-saccade eye-movement task was compared, by statistical parametric mapping, in ten male schizophrenic patients on stable antipsychotic medication who had a high distractibility error rate on the task, and eight similar patients who had normal distractibility error rates. Compared with the normal error group, the patients with high error rates showed significantly decreased rCBF bilaterally, in the anterior cingulate, insula, and in left striatum. These same patients also had increased perseverative errors on the Wisconsin Card Sort Test.

Abstract:
Cognitive deficits in schizophrenia can be differentiated into state-linked accompaniments of psychotic episodes and trait-linked signs of a more enduring vulnerability to schizophrenia (Zubin & Spring, 1977; Cromwell & Spaulding, 1978). Elsewhere (Spring & Zubin, 1978) we suggested that a marker of psychotic episodes is one that deviates in highly symptomatic schizophrenic patients and normalises as their florid psychotic symptoms remit. A stable vulnerability marker, in contrast, continues to deviate in remitted patients, their biological relatives, and others who are vulnerable to schizophrenia but not floridly psychotic. In addition, Nuechterlein & Dawson (1984) proposed a mediating vulnerability marker which demonstrates characteristics of both vulnerability and episode markers. On such a marker, asymptomatic vulnerable individuals differ from normal; the advent of psychosis magnifies the deviation.

Abstract:
Elevated distractibility is one of the major contributors to alcohol hangover-induced behavioral deficits. Yet, the basic mechanisms driving increased distractibility during hangovers are still not very well understood. Aside from impairments in attention and psychomotor functions, changes in stimulus-response bindings may also increase responding to distracting information, as suggested by the theory of event coding (TEC). Yet, this has never been investigated in the context of alcohol hangover. Therefore, we investigated whether alcohol hangover has different effects on target-response bindings and distractor-response bindings using a task that allows to differentiate these two phenomena. A total of n = 35 healthy males aged 19 to 28 were tested once sober and once hungover after being intoxicated in a standardized experimental drinking setting the night before (2.64 gr of alcohol per estimated liter of body water). We found that alcohol hangover reduced distractor-response bindings, while no such impairment was found for target-response bindings, which appeared to be unaffected. Our findings imply that the processing of distracting information is most likely not increased, but in fact decreased by hangover. This suggests that increased distractibility during alcohol hangover is most likely not caused by modulations in distractor-response bindings.

Abstract:
AbstractThis study investigated the changes in mental strategies across the season and their effects on performance and satisfaction with individual performance. Data were collected three times: at the pre-season at Time 1 (T1; baseline), in the mid-season at Time 2 (T2; two-month follow-up), and at the end-of-season at Time 3 (T3; nine-month follow-up) among male soccer players (N = 97) aged 16-27. Athletes completed the questionnaires assessing the use of nine psychological strategies in competition and the level of satisfaction with individual performance. Endurance performance was measured objectively with a 300 m run. A high level of relaxation (T1) explained better 300 m run performance (T3) and a high level of self-talk explained a higher satisfaction with individual performance (T3). A rare use of distractibility and emotional control (T1) predicted a higher level of satisfaction with individual performance (T3). No predictive role of other psychological strategies was found. The use of emotional control, relaxation, and distractibility increased over the season, whereas the use of imagery and negative thinking declined. Besides the roles of self-talk, imagery, relaxation and goal-setting, the effects of distractibility and emotional control should be taken into account when considering athletes’ mental training programs.

Abstract:
The Frankfurt Adaptive Concentration Test (FACT-2) requires discrimination between geometric target and nontarget items as quickly and accurately as possible. Three forms of the FACT-2 were constructed, namely FACT-I, FACT-S, and FACT-SR. The aim of the present study was to investigate the convergent validity of the FACT-SR with self-reported cognitive failures. The FACT-SR and the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ) were completed by 191 participants. The measurement models confirmed the concentration performance, concentration accuracy, and concentration homogeneity dimensions of FACT-SR. The four dimensions of the CFQ (i.e., memory, distractibility, blunders, and names) were not confirmed. The results showed moderate convergent validity of concentration performance, concentration accuracy, and concentration homogeneity with two CFQ dimensions, namely memory and distractibility/blunders.
