Description
A peer-reviewed research article from Europe PMC (2025). Chronic heroin addiction induces severe physiological dependence and systematically impairs the neural mechanisms underlying basic cognitive functions. However, the specific effects of opioids on divergent thinking—a higher-order cognitive function—and its neural basis remain underexplored. This study recruited individuals with chronic heroin use disorder (HUD, n = 38) and healthy controls (HC, n = 35) to record neural activity during divergent thinking tasks (Alternative Uses Test, AUT) using electroencephalography (EEG).
