Impulse Control Modulation

Meaning

Impulse Control Modulation is the physiological and behavioral process of adjusting the capacity to inhibit pre-potent, automatic, or immediate responses in favor of delayed, more adaptive, or goal-directed actions. This clinical objective involves refining the neurological brakes on behavior, thereby improving self-regulation and mitigating the risk of detrimental impulsive decisions. Effective modulation is essential for long-term health and success.
