inhibition have been used as biological markers to identify and understand neurocognitive mechanisms of mental health disorders, such as alcohol use disorders (AUDs) (Kamarajan et al. 2006). Kamarajan et al. (2006) showed lower ERO power in the no‐go condition of a go/no‐go task, first observed in individuals with AUD, was also seen in offspring from families at high risk for AUDs, suggesting neural deficits may precede the development of psychiatric disorders (Kamarajan et al. 2006). Adolescents with a family history of AUD have disproportionately high rates of trauma exposure (Breslau et al. 2013; Dube et al. 2001). Individuals exposed to sexual assaultive trauma also show lower frontal theta EROs during the no‐go condition in a response inhibition task, even after controlling for other factors, including parental AUD (Meyers et al. 2019), suggesting trauma type plays a critical role in ERO differences.
