“…Interestingly, the ERN was not significantly cross-sectionally correlated with baseline depression symptoms. While several studies have demonstrated that depression is associated with a blunted ERN (Ladouceur et al, 2012;Ruchsow et al, 2004Ruchsow et al, , 2006Schoenberg, 2014;Schrijvers et al, 2009), other studies have demonstrated an enhanced ERN in depression (Aarts et al, 2013;Chiu & Deldin, 2007;Holmes & Pizzagalli, 2008, 2010Tang et al, 2013) and others have found no such associations between the two (Bress et al, 2015;Ruchsow et al, 2004;Seow et al, 2020;Weinberg et al, 2012). Some have suggested that these inconsistencies are due in part to the diagnostic heterogeneity of depression, such that symptoms of anhedonia and psychomotor retardation more strongly relate to a blunted ERN than other depression symptoms (Olvet et al, 2010;Schrijvers et al, 2008;Weinberg, Kotov, & Proudfit, 2015;Weinberg, Liu, & Shankman, 2016).…”
