“…The present findings are in contrast to prior research that found decreased reciprocity alone among adults with social anxiety (Anderl et al, 2018) and borderline personality disorder (King-Casas et al, 2008), and even IV-related PTSD (Bell et al, 2019), indicating there is a unique aspect of trust behaviors among IV-exposed adolescents, particularly those with anxiety symptomatology, within our sample. Previous findings have indicated that trust reciprocity decreases with age throughout adolescence as a form of prosocial development (van de Groep, Meuwese, Zanolie, Güroğlu, & Crone, 2020), and prosocial behaviors such as perspective taking and social decision-making improve with age (Güroğlu et al, 2014;Tamnes et al, 2018).…”

Trauma research has traditionally focused on altered emotion regulation and its role in psychopathology, whereas mechanisms of social behavior remain comparatively unexplored, particularly among adolescents. It has been previously reported that adolescents with histories of interpersonal violence (IV) demonstrate disrupted social learning, and the degree to which they are impaired during social interactions requiring trustful behaviors may be associated with their levels of anxiety. In the present study, 52 adolescent females ( n = 26 control; n = 26 IV-exposed) between ages of 11 and 17 completed a multi-round adaptation of the Trust Game in which they interacted with a confederate peer run by a computer program, alternating between the roles of investor and investee. The task was designed to operationalize the social behaviors of trust and trust reciprocity, where the magnitude of the participants’ monetary investment in the confederate during the investor role represented trust while the proportion of investment returned to the confederate in the investee role represented trust reciprocity. IV-exposed and control participants did not differ in trust (i.e., as investors); however, IV-exposed participants without anxiety diagnoses demonstrated lower trust than those with anxiety diagnoses. For trust reciprocity (i.e., as investees), there were again no differences between IV-exposed participants and controls; however, IV-exposed participants with anxiety diagnoses had increased trust reciprocity compared with both other groups. Similarly, caregiver-reported anxiety symptoms were associated with trust reciprocity behaviors among the IV-exposed adolescents. Findings suggest that IV exposure and associated anxiety impacts adolescents’ trust behaviors, demonstrating potential mechanisms for maladaptive social behavior among trauma-exposed youth.

“…Araştırmada ekonomik kararlarda güven ve karşılıklılık ilişkileri incelenirken, katılımcıların duygu durumlarını gösteren depresyon ve anksiyete düzeyleri de dikkate alınmıştır. Literatürde ekonomik araştırmalarda anksiyete ve depresyon düzeyinin, güven ve karşılıklılık davranışı üzerine etki edebileceği gösterilmiştir (Anderl, Steil, Hahn, Hitzeroth, Reif ve Windmann 2018;Kim vd., 2012). Sonuçta gönderilen tutar, güven düzeyiyle ilişkilendirilmektedir ve güven düzeyiyle anksiyete ve depresyon düzeyi arasında negatif bir ilişki beklenmiştir.…”

Güven ve karşılıklılık, bir yatırım oyunu ile davranışsal iktisat literatüründe sıklıkla ele alınan kavramlar haline gelmiştir. Güven oyunu, ekonomik çıkarların ön planda tutulmasının beklendiği bir ortamda, kişilerarası etkileşimlerde bireysel güvenme ve karşılıklılık davranışlarını araştırmak için kullanılır. Güven, yol gösteren davranışsal bir içgüdü olarak ele alınırken karşılıklılık, dostça eylemlere yanıt olarak, insanların genellikle kişisel çıkar modelinin öngördüğünden çok daha iyi ve iş birliği içinde olmaları anlamına gelir. Bu araştırmada, güven oyunu deneyi, Aksaray Üniversitesi İktisat bölümünden 60 öğrencinin katılımıyla tekrarlanmış ve sonuçlar En Küçük Kareler (EKK) yöntemiyle değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda kişisel çıkar öngörüsünden ziyade, güven ve karşılıklılık prensibinin geçerli olduğu görülmüştür. Sonuçlar literatürün büyük bölümünde elde edilen sonuçlarla paralellik göstermektedir. Araştırma kapsamında bireylerin psikolojik durumlarının güven tutumlarını etkilediği yönündeki literatür dikkate alınarak, katılımcıların depresyon ve anksiyete düzeyleri de incelenmiştir. Sonuçta güven düzeyini temsil etmek üzere gönderilen tutar ile anksiyete arasında %14,8, depresyon arasında ise %18,8’lik negatif bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir. Araştırmanın, bireylerin ekonomik davranışlarında psikolojik durumlarının da dikkate alınması açısından literatüre katkı sağlaması beklenmektedir.

“…Furthermore, people with SAD do not show increases in non-verbal synchrony that occur in healthy controls when engaging in closeness-generating conversations ( 69 ). Further indicators of social miscoordination in SAD include reduced reciprocal giving ( 70 ) and greater sensitivity to social punishment that may result in a greater difficulty adapting to increased social reinforcement after being rejected by someone ( 36 ). People with SAD also show differential cortisol reactivity in a high self-disclosure context and evidence less of a decline in cortisol when self-disclosing compared to people lower in social anxiety ( 71 ).…”

MDMA-Assisted Therapy as a Means to Alter Affective, Cognitive, Behavioral, and Neurological Systems Underlying Social Dysfunction in Social Anxiety Disorder

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is a prevalent and often debilitating psychiatric disorder that can assume a chronic course even when treated. Despite the identification of evidence-based pharmacological and behavioral treatments for SAD, much room for improved outcomes exists and 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) has been proposed as a promising adjunctive treatment to psychological interventions for disorders characterized by social dysfunction. A small randomized, placebo-controlled trial of MDMA-assisted therapy (MDMA-AT) for social anxiety in autistic adults offered encouraging results, but more research is sorely needed to explore the potential for MDMA-AT in treating SAD. This review aims to stimulate future study by summarizing research on disruptions in neurological, perceptual, receptive, and expressive systems regulating social behavior in SAD and proposing how MDMA-AT may alter these systems across four domains. First, we review research highlighting the roles of social anhedonia and reduced social reward sensitivity in maintaining SAD, with specific attention to the reduction in positive affect in social situations, infrequent social approach behaviors, and related social skills deficits. We posit that MDMA-AT may enhance motivation to connect with others and alter perceptions of social reward for an extended period following administration, thereby potentiating extinction processes, and increasing the reinforcement value of social interactions. Second, we review evidence for the central role of heightened social evaluative threat perception in the development and maintenance of SAD and consider how MDMA-AT may enhance experiences of affiliation and safety when interacting with others. Third, we consider the influence of shame and the rigid application of shame regulation strategies as important intrapersonal processes maintaining SAD and propose the generation of self-transcendent emotions during MDMA sessions as a mechanism of shame reduction that may result in corrective emotional experiences and boost memory reconsolidation. Finally, we review research on the role of dysfunctional interpersonal behaviors in SAD that interfere with social functioning and, in particular, the development and maintenance of close and secure relationships. We discuss the hypothesized role of MDMA-AT in improving social skills to elicit positive interpersonal responses from others, creating a greater sense of belonging, acceptance, and social efficacy.
