The aim of this systematic review was to provide insight in inhibitory control (prepotent response inhibition and interference control) in trauma-exposed youth from a developmental perspective and exploring the effects of prolonged stress. A systematic search was conducted, resulting in 1722 abstracts. Of those, 33 studies met inclusion criteria. Twelve studies measured prepotent response inhibition (Go/no-go and Stop-signal task), 20 studies measured interference control (Flanker and Stroop task), and one measured both. Some studies indeed found evidence for prolonged trauma exposure impeding both subcomponents of inhibitory control, although others did not. At a later age, inhibitory control problems on task performance seem to disappear. However, distinct patterns of brain activity may suggest that those individuals employ compensation strategies. Together, the findings may suggest that non-specific inhibitory control problems occur after prolonged trauma exposure, with older youth possibly employing compensation strategies on the tasks. Future studies may provide a clearer picture of the compensation strategies and the circumstances in which they become visible.

这篇系统综述的目的是从发展的角度为受创伤青年的抑制控制（有力的反应抑制和干扰控制）提供见识，并探讨长期压力的影响。进行了系统的检索，获得了1722篇摘要。其中，有33项研究符合纳入标准。十二项研究测量了有力的反应抑制（Go / no-go和Stop-signal任务），20项研究测量了干扰控制（Flanker和Stroop任务），一项测量了两者。确实有一些研究发现了长时间暴露于外在会阻碍抑制性控制的两个子部分的证据，而其他研究则没有。在晚些时候，对任务执行的抑制控制问题似乎消失了。然而，大脑活动的不同模式可能表明这些人采用了补偿策略。总之，这些发现可能表明长时间的创伤暴露后会出现非特异性的抑制控制问题，而年龄较大的年轻人可能会在任务中采用补偿策略。未来的研究可能会更清晰地显示补偿策略以及使其变得可见的情况。
