Neural activation and connectivity in offspring of depressed mothers during monetary and social reward tasks
This study examined brain function in older children (aged 9-14 years) through both regional activation and functional connectivity during monetary (n = 103) and social reward (n = 115) tasks. Overall, our study failed to find significant differences between offspring of mothers with and without depression on monetary (65 offspring of mothers without and 38 offspring of mother with depression) and social reward (73 offspring of mothers without and 42 offspring of mother with depression) tasks on task activation and functional connectivity. We discuss possibilities for developmental timing of finding differences between off...

Patterns of Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia and Trajectories of Anxiety and Depressive Symptoms in Early Adolescence
Biol Psychol. 2023 Nov 17:108723. doi: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2023.108723. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn children and adults, individual differences in patterns of respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA; i.e., interactions between resting RSA and RSA reactivity to stress) have emerged as a central predictor of internalizing symptoms. However, it is unclear whether individual differences in patterns of RSA also contribute to internalizing symptoms during the key developmental period of early adolescence, when rates of internalizing symptoms sharply increase. In the present multi-wave longitudinal study, we assessed whether patte...

Effect of homeostatic pressure and circadian arousal on the storage and executive components of working memory: Evidence from EEG power spectrum
Biol Psychol. 2023 Nov 10;184:108721. doi: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2023.108721. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiurnal fluctuations in working memory (WM) performance, characterized by task-specific peaks and troughs, are likely attributed to the differential regulation of WM subcomponents by interactions between circadian and homeostatic processes. The current study aimed to investigate the independent effects of circadian and homeostatic processes on the storage and executive subcomponents of WM. We assessed the change in frontal-midline theta (FMT) power supporting WM executive component and posterior alpha/beta power suppor...

Mood congruency affects physiological synchrony but not empathic accuracy in a naturalistic empathy task
Biol Psychol. 2023 Nov 11;184:108720. doi: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2023.108720. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEmpathy is a crucial aspect of our daily lives, as it enhances our wellbeing and is a proxy for prosocial behavior. It encompasses two related but partially distinct components: cognitive and affective empathy. Both are susceptible to context, biases and an individual's physiological state. Few studies have explored the effects of a person's mood on these empathy components, and results are mixed. The current study takes advantage of an ecological, naturalistic empathy task - the empathic accuracy (EA) task - in combin...
