“…Electroencephalography was analyzed using the EEGLAB toolbox (Delorme & Makeig, 2004), MATLAB scripts (The MathWorks), and the MADE pipeline (Debnath et al, 2020). Data were high-pass filtered at 0.3 Hz and low-pass filtered at 50 Hz.…”

Chronic environmental stress has deleterious effects on the developing child. While the type and degree of stress that children experience can vary widely, the downstream influence of varying stressors may impact child development similarly. Of particular interest is building an understanding of how chronic stress impacts brain functioning early in life, as both environmental stress and alterations in patterns of infant brain development have been related to a constellation of subsequent negative developmental outcomes. Among typically developing children, studies using electroencephalography (EEG) have shown that the relative contribution of low-frequency resting EEG power decreases with age, whereas the relative contribution of high-frequency resting EEG power increases with age (Marshall, Bar-Haim, & Fox, 2002). A variety of highly stressful environments have been linked to alterations

“…During data collection, electrodes were referenced to electrode Cz. All pre-processing, including ocular artifact detection and removal, was performed with the Maryland Analysis of Developmental EEG (MADE) pipeline (Debnath et al, 2020), which utilizes MATLAB (The MathWorks, Natick, MA) functions from EEGLAB (Delorme & Makeig, 2004) and its plugins "FASTER" (Nolan et al, 2010), "ADJUST" (Mognon et al, 2011), and "ADJUSTED ADJUST" (Leach et al, 2020). Offline, data were re-referenced to an average reference and band-pass filtered from 0.3 to 50 Hz with a digital FIR filter.…”

Background: Behavioral inhibition (BI) is a temperament style characterized by heightened reactivity and negative affect in response to novel people and situations, and it is a strong predictor of anxiety problems later in life. However, not all BI children develop anxiety problems and mounting evidence suggests that how one manages their cognitive resources (cognitive control) influences anxiety risk. The present study tests whether more (proactive control) or less (reactive control) planful cognitive strategies moderate relations between BI and anxiety. Methods: Participants included 144 adolescents (55.9% female) whose temperament was assessed during toddlerhood. In adolescence (mean age = 15.4 years), participants completed an AX Continuous Performance Test while EEG was recorded in order to disentangle neural activity related to proactive (cue-locked P3b) and reactive (probe-locked N2) control. Results: BI was associated with greater total anxiety scores only among adolescents with smaller ΔP3bs and larger ΔN2s - a pattern consistent with decreased reliance on proactive strategies and increased reliance on reactive strategies. Additionally, a larger ΔP3b was associated with greater total anxiety scores. Conclusions: BI relates to risk for anxiety specifically among adolescents who rely less on proactive strategies and more on reactive control strategies. Results further suggest that proactive control differentiates a BI-related etiological pathway to anxiety from a more general pathway to anxiety occurring regardless of BI level. Thus, developmental context (i.e., temperament) moderates the association between anxiety and proactive control. The present study is the first to characterize how proactive and reactive control uniquely relate to pathways toward anxiety risk.

“…EEG from all three studies were recorded using a 128-channel HydroCel Geodesic Sensor Net (Electrical Geodesics, Inc., Eugene, OR). The data acquisition, preprocessing, timefrequency, and spectral power analysis procedures are detailed in supplementary analyses and followed the Maryland Analysis of Developmental EEG (MADE) pipeline (Debnath et al, 2020).

Neighborhood racial demographics predict infants’ neural responses to people of different races

Early in life, greater exposure to diverse people can change the tendency to prefer one’s own social group. For instance, infants from racially diverse environments show less preference for their own-race (ingroup) over other-race (outgroup) faces than infants from racially homogeneous environments. Yet how social environment changes ingroup versus outgroup demarcation in infancy is unclear. A commonly held assumption is that early emerging ingroup preference is based on an affective process: feeling more comfortable with familiar ingroup than unfamiliar outgroup members. However, other processes may also underlie ingroup preference: Infants may attend more to ingroup than outgroup members and/or mirror the actions of ingroup over outgroup individuals. By aggregating 7- to 12-month-old infants’ electroencephalography (EEG) activity across three studies, we disambiguate these different processes in the EEG oscillations of preverbal infants according to social environment. White infants from more racially diverse neighborhoods exhibited greater frontal theta oscillation (an index of top-down attention) and more mu rhythm desynchronization (an index of motor system activation and potentially neural mirroring) to racial outgroup individuals than White infants from less racially diverse neighborhoods. Neighborhood racial demographics did not relate to White infants’ frontal alpha asymmetry (a measure of approach-withdrawal motivation) toward racial outgroup individuals. Racial minority infants showed no effects of neighborhood racial demographics in their neural responses to racial outgroup individuals. These results indicate that neural mechanisms that may underlie social bias and prejudices are related to neighborhood racial demographics in the first year of life.
