In addition to subclinical psychopathy and ADHD, the manipulation of cognitive load has been highlighted as being important when investigating inhibitory deficits in bipolar disorder (Langenecker et al., 2010; Ryan et al., 2012). Here, similarly to subclinical psychopathy, static response inhibition as conceptualized in the standard Go/No-go task does not capture the response inhibition deficit, whereas the PGNG as a contextual response inhibition task consistently reveals the state and trait deficits in inhibitory ability (Langenecker et al., 2010; Ryan et al., 2012).
