“…For example, Chen et al ( 27 ) using IAT did not find any difference in N200 amplitudes of HCs under the positive and negative self conditions. Allison et al ( 22 ) using SRET found no difference in P300 amplitudes. In addition, Lou et al ( 15 ) also focused on P300 (early LPP) and LPP (late LPP), and significant results were found only for LPP amplitudes.…”

“…P300 is a positive wave that peaks around 300–400 ms after stimulus onset over parietal sites and is related to the allocation of attention and cognitive resources ( 19 ). Some studies consider LPP and P300 as the same component, thus referring to the wave appearing at 300–400 ms or before 600 ms as early LPP ( 15 , 22 ), and the wave appearing after 600 ms over the centro-parietal scalp as late LPP ( 15 , 19 , 23 ). Late LPP is related to the degree of arousal and delicate processing of stimuli ( 8 , 24 ).…”

Electrophysiological evidence for the characteristics of implicit self-schema and other-schema in patients with major depressive disorder: An event-related potential study

BackgroundThe significance of implicit self-schema and other-schema in major depressive disorder (MDD) is highlighted by both cognitive theory and attachment theory. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the behavioral and event-related potential (ERP) characteristics of implicit schemas in MDD patients.MethodsThe current study recruited 40 patients with MDD and 33 healthy controls (HCs). The participants were screened for mental disorders using the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview. Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-17 and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale-14 were employed to assess the clinical symptoms. Extrinsic Affective Simon Task (EAST) was conducted to measure the characteristics of implicit schemas. Meanwhile, reaction time and electroencephalogram data were recorded.ResultsBehavioral indexes showed that HCs responded faster to positive self and positive others than negative self (t = −3.304, p = 0.002, Cohen’s d = 0.575) and negative others (t = −3.155, p = 0.003, Cohen’s d = 0.549), respectively. However, MDD did not show this pattern (p > 0.05). The difference in other-EAST effect between HCs and MDD was significant (t = 2.937, p = 0.004, Cohen’s d = 0.691). The ERP indicators of self-schema showed that under the condition of positive self, the mean amplitude of LPP in MDD was significantly smaller than that in HCs (t = −2.180, p = 0.034, Cohen’s d = 0.902). The ERP indexes of other-schema showed that HCs had a larger absolute value of N200 peak amplitude for negative others (t = 2.950, p = 0.005, Cohen’s d = 0.584) and a larger P300 peak amplitude for positive others (t = 2.185, p = 0.033, Cohen’s d = 0.433). The above patterns were not shown in MDD (p > 0.05). The comparison between groups found that under the condition of negative others, the absolute value of N200 peak amplitude in HCs was larger than that in MDD (t = 2.833, p = 0.006, Cohen’s d = 1.404); under the condition of positive others, the P300 peak amplitude (t = −2.906, p = 0.005, Cohen’s d = 1.602) and LPP amplitude (t = −2.367, p = 0.022, Cohen’s d = 1.100) in MDD were smaller than that in HCs.ConclusionPatients with MDD lack positive self-schema and positive other-schema. Implicit other-schema might be related to abnormalities in both the early automatic processing stage and the late elaborate processing stage, while the implicit self-schema might be related only to the abnormality in the late elaborate processing stage.

“…These scores were then further broken down into different primary life domains (e.g., marital/partner, housing) and core social‐psychological characteristics (e.g., physical danger, humiliation, interpersonal loss), and for stressor occurring in early life versus adulthood. The primary STRAIN predictors are cumulative lifetime stressor count (possible range: 0–166) and cumulative lifetime stressor severity (possible range: 0–265), both of which have been extensively validated against social, cognitive, clinical, and behavioral outcomes (e.g., Allison et al, 2021; Brady et al, 2022; Cazassa et al, 2020; Slavich & Shields, 2018; Sturmbauer et al, 2019).…”

Greater lifetime stressor exposure is associated with poorer mental health among sexual minority people of color

Background: Research has shown that sexual minority people of color experience pervasive and sometimes severe life stressors that increase their risk of experiencing mental health problems, and that can contribute to lifelong health disparities. However, no studies in this population have investigated stressor exposure occurring over the entire lifespan. Moreover, it remains unknown whether these stressor-health effects differ based on the timing or types of stressors experienced. Purpose:The purpose of this study is to examine how cumulative lifetime stressor exposure is associated with mental health among Black, Latinx, and biracial Black-Latinx sexual minority persons. Method: Participants were 285 ethnic/racial minority young adults (M age = 25.18 years old, SD = 1.94, age range = 19-29 years), who completed the Stress and Adversity Inventory for Adults to assess for retrospective reports of lifetime stressor count and severity. The Brief Symptom Inventory was used to assess participants' symptoms of anxiety, depression, and somatization, which were the main outcomes. Most participants identified as

“…Moreover, there is some evidence that the altered LPP may precede the development of the disorder. For instance, reduced LPP amplitude to pleasant pictures has been observed in adults with dysphoria ( Benning and Ait Oumeziane, 2017 ; Moretta et al, 2021 ), in adults and children with a parental history of depression ( Kujawa et al, 2012 ; Nelson et al, 2015 ; Moretta and Messerotti Benvenuti, under review 1 ), in adults with remitted depression ( Allison et al, 2021 ), and to prospectively predict depression onset ( Levinson et al, 2018 ; Sandre et al, 2019 ). Specifically, regarding the parental risk for depression, Kujawa et al (2012) found that even preschool children with a maternal history of depression, but no depressive symptoms, had a reduced LPP to pleasant images relative to controls.…”

Considering that the classical categorical approach to mental disorders does not allow a clear identification of at-risk conditions, the dimensional approach provided by the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) is useful in the exploration of vulnerability to psychopathology. In the RDoC era, psychophysiological models have an important role in the reconceptualization of mental disorders. Indeed, progress in the study of depression vulnerability has increasingly been informed by psychophysiological models. By adopting an RDoC lens, this narrative review focuses on how psychophysiological models can be used to advance our knowledge of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying depression vulnerability. Findings from psychophysiological research that explored multiple RDoC domains in populations at-risk for depression are reviewed and discussed. Future directions for the application of psychophysiological research in reaching a more complete understanding of depression vulnerability and, ultimately, improving clinical utility, are presented.
