Alcoholism is associated with deficits in a number of cognitive and motor domains including executive functioning (e.g., selective attention, working memory, and information processing speed), memory (e.g., episodic memory), visuospatial abilities (e.g., visuoconstruction and visuoperceptual processing), and motor dexterity and speed (e.g., Beatty, Tivis, Stott, Nixon, & Parsons, 2000; Davies et al., 2005; Pitel et al., 2009; Stavro, Pelletier, & Potvin, 2012; for reviews see Le Berre, Fama, & Sullivan, 2017; Oscar-Berman et al., 2014). Neural correlates associated with these deficits in chronic alcoholics include frontal, limbic, and cerebellar systems (for a review see Oscar-Berman & Marinkovic, 2007).
