Qualitative review and quantitative effect size meta-analyses in brain regions identified by cue-reactivity addiction studies.

This study underscores the need for additional research comparing the neural mechanisms underlying different addiction types. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
