ListOutcomeTime frameDescriptionSource
PrimaryStriatal D2/3 Binding Potential (BPND) Upregulation8 weeksDopamine D2-type receptor binding potential in the striatum measured with positron emission tomography scanning measured at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment.ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondarySustained attention8 weeks
The Continuous Performance Task will be used to assess sustained attention at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment. The following outcome variables will be assessed: Correct Detection: Number of responses to the target stimulus. Reaction times: Length of time between stimulus presentation and response. Omission errors: Number of target presentations with no response. Commission errors: Number of responses without target stimulus presentation. High omission rates reflect impaired attention, higher correct detections reflect improved attention.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryWorking memory8 weeks
The Sternberg Spatial Task will be used to assess working memory at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment. The number of correct responses will be measured, with higher amounts of correct responses reflecting better working memory.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryDeclarative memory8 weeks
The Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test will be used to assess declarative memory at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment. The number of words correctly recalled will be recorded before and after a 20 minute delay, as well as the number of intrusions. The corresponding Z score and percentile of each participant's responses will be calculated.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondarySelective attention8 weeks
The Stroop Task will be used to assess working memory at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment. The number of words, colors, and number of color words within a set time will be measured, as well as the number of errors. Larger amounts of errors reflect worse selective attention, whereas higher numbers of words, colors, and number of color words completed reflect better selective attention.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryInhibitory control - stop signal task8 weeksThe Stop-signal task will be used to assess inhibitory control at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment.ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryInhibitory control - reversal learning8 weeksA reversal learning task will be used to assess inhibitory control at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment.ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryReward-based decision-making8 weeks
A monetary delay-discounting task/questionnaires and the Balloon Analogue Risk task will be used to assess reward-based decision-making at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment. The primary outcome measures include the number of balloon pumps and earnings, with more pumps and earnings reflecting greater risk.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryResting state functional connectivity8 weeksStriatum resting state functional connectivity will be measured with a functional magnetic resonance imaging scan at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment.ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryTask-based brain activity (functional magnetic resonance imaging) - balloon analog risk8 weeks
Performance on a cognitive task (the Balloon Analog Risk Task) will be assessed during a functional magnetic resonance imaging scan at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryTask-based brain activity (functional magnetic resonance imaging - stop signal8 weeks
Performance on a cognitive task the (Stop Signal Task), will be assessed during a functional magnetic resonance imaging scan at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryDecision making under risk and ambiguity8 weeks
A task involving decision making under during differing types of risk and ambiguity will be used to determine decision making under risk and ambiguity at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment. The Risk and Ambiguity Task measures tolerance for risk under conditions of known risk (alpha) and unknown risk (beta).
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryLoss Aversion8 weeksA computer task and written questionnaire assessing loss preferences will be used to assess loss aversion at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment.ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryMotor Function8 weeks
A finger tapping test will be to assess motor function at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment. The number of finger taps in 10 seconds will be recorded three times per hand, and averaged to create the primary outcome measure reflecting motor function.
ClinicalTrials.gov
OtherPersonality - impulsivity8 weeks
Self-report of impulsivity will be measured at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment with the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (11). The total score will be calculated as measured at both time points as the primary outcome measure.
ClinicalTrials.gov
OtherPersonality - novelty seekingBaselineSelf-report of novelty seeking will be measured at baseline prior to the EX or CON intervention using the Temperament and Character Inventory.ClinicalTrials.gov
OtherPersonality - reward dependenceBaselineSelf-report of reward dependence will be measured at baseline prior to the EX or CON intervention using the Temperament and Character Inventory.ClinicalTrials.gov
OtherMethamphetamine Craving8 weeks
Self-report of craving of methamphetamine will be measured at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment using the Brief Meth Craving Scale. A total summary score is calculated and used as the primary outcome measure.
ClinicalTrials.gov
OtherCocaine Craving8 weeks
Self-report of craving of cocaine will be measured at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment using the Cocaine Craving Questionnaire-Brief. A total summary score is calculated and used as the primary outcome measure.
ClinicalTrials.gov
OtherPersonality- risk taking8 weeks
Self-report of risk perceptions and risk behaviors will be measured at baseline prior to exercise (EX) and after 8 weeks of EX (vs. CON) treatment using the Domain Specific Risk Taking Scale. Three scores will be computed: Risk Taking, Risk Perception, and Expected Benefits and changes in these scores will be measured at both time points.
