Background: Depressive symptoms are associated with negative expectations and reduced belief updating by positive information. Cognitive immunization, the devaluation of information, has been argued to be central in this relationship predictive processing models suggest that more information is greater cognitive immunization.Methods: In an online experiment, N=347 healthy participants took part a performance task standardized feedback varying levels positivity (mild, moderate, extreme). Effects on immunization were investigated. Further, depressive symptoms, interpretation bias participant’s self-evaluation examined as potential correlates updating.Results: As expected, receiving mildly reported amount than those moderately feedback. However, neither group differed from extremely Although did not show hypothesized association they weaker increase following Exploratory analyses showed associations between updating.Conclusions: The results engaged when was less expected. updating, but immunization. Self-evaluation may promising factor for future research.

Stimuli such as surprised faces are ambiguous in that they associated with both positive and negative outcomes. Interestingly, people differ reliably whether evaluate these other stimuli or negative, we have argued a evaluation relies part on biasing of the appraisal processes via reappraisal. To further test this idea, conducted two studies to increasing cognitive accessibility reappraisal through brief emotion regulation task would lead an increase evaluations ambiguity. Supporting prediction, demonstrated cuing reappraisal, but not three forms (Study 1a-d; n = 120), increased faces. In sign robustness, also found effect generalised from scenes 2; 34). Collectively, findings suggest may play key role determining responses stimuli. We discuss context affective flexibility, valence bias (i.e. tendency ambiguity more positively negatively) represents novel approach measuring implicit regulation.

Abstract Introduction Early adolescence represents a time of heightened vulnerability for depression. Negative interpretation biases have been associated with increases in depressive symptoms during this developmental period; however, the mechanisms underlying association between and depression remain poorly understood. Cognitive theories posit that give rise to by modulating daily affect, particularly context stress. However, has not yet directly examined. The present study tested affect intensity instability as linking negative change adolescent symptoms. Methods Ninety‐four adolescents (aged 11–13 years; 51% boys) from Vancouver, Canada, were recruited longitudinal study. At baseline (Time 1), participants self‐reported completed Scrambled Sentences Task assess biases. Next, diaries positive (PA) (NA) naturalistic stressor—the first 2 weeks high school 2). Finally, 3 months later 3). Path models conducted test whether PA NA mediated prospective associations symptom changes. Results Although intensity, instability, predicted symptoms, only Neither nor these associations. Conclusions Elevated specific mechanism through which stronger predict adolescence.

Experience sampling methods (ESMs) are increasingly being used to study ecological emotion dynamics in daily functioning through repeated assessments taken over several days. However, most of these ESM approaches only based on self-report assessments, and therefore, studies the trajectories their underlying mechanisms scarce (ie, cognitive biases) require evaluation experimental tasks. We developed a novel tool that integrates measures regulation with previously validated app-based task allows for assessment during functioning.The objective is test this new its usability possible factors related compliance it terms latency missing responses. Among predictors, we considered psychological time-related variables, as well usability, measurement reactivity, participants' satisfaction tool.We conducted 2 extensive studies-study 1 (N=84; total 3 per day 5 days) (N=135; 10 days).In both studies, participants found highly usable (average score >81).

Interpretation biases (IBs) play a central role in cognitive models of anxiety disorders and are considered transdiagnostic feature operating across disorder categories lev-els severity. Despite decades research, the magnitude this bias as well factors modulating its largely unknown. This article presents three-level meta-analysis investigating strength association between IBs symptoms anxiety. Databases (PsycINFO, PubMed, ProQuest Dissertations) were searched resulting inclusion 295 samples with 1450 contrasts. An overall medium effect size (g = 0.48, 95% CI [0.43, 0.52]) was found. Equivalent sizes found for minors adults different (Generalized Anxiety, Panic/Agoraphobia/Anxiety Sen-sitivity, Specific Phobia, Separation Multiple Symptom Clusters) clinical sta-tuses (clinical, sub-clinical). Moreover, larger studies using direct measures, verbal disorder-specific stimuli. Interestingly, stronger negative than positive To conclude, present results consistent view that is associated operate severity levels. These findings have implications theories interventions.

In today's fast-paced world, depression and anxiety are the most prevalent health problems, generating high economic social burdens. Interpretation biases seem to play a pivotal role in this emotional influencing how individuals interpret emotionally ambiguous information. These interpretation can emerge due activation of latent schemas related perceive themselves. Therefore, integrating study cognitive self-discrepancy models offer comprehensive approach better understanding onset or maintenance symptoms, through their relationship with biases. paper, we aimed test whether differences self-perception might act like schema that activate bias, information processing predicting symptoms.
