Vocal Emotional Expressions in Mothers with and without a History of Major Depressive Disorder
The Gender Self-Report
Gender identity is a core component of human experience, critical to account for in broad health, development, psychosocial research, and clinical practice. Yet, the psychometric characterization of gender has been impeded due to challenges in modeling the myriad gender self-descriptors, statistical power limitations related to multigroup analyses, and equity-related concerns regarding the accessibility of complex gender terminology. Therefore, t…
Transgender Youth Executive Functioning
Emotions as Regulators of Motivated Behavior
Emotions, when viewed from the affective neuroscience perspective, arise from organized patterns of brain activity, which function to generate adaptive behavioral responses. Behavior that emerges from emotional brain engagement can almost always be characterized as motivated. Thus, emotion and motivation are highly interdependent concepts, particularly when it comes to behavioral expression. However, emotions do not always generate behavior, and …
Attention to Peer Feedback Through the Eyes of Adolescents with a History of Anxiety and Healthy Adolescents
A systematic review of attentional biases in disorders involving binge eating
Social re-orientation and brain development
Social development has been the focus of a great deal of neuroscience based research over the past decade. In this review, we focus on providing a framework for understanding how changes in facets of social development may correspond with changes in brain function. We argue that (1) distinct phases of social behavior emerge based on whether the organizing social force is the mother, peer play, peer integration, or romantic intimacy; (2) each phas…
Depressed Adolescents’ Pupillary Response to Peer Acceptance and Rejection
Heightened emotional reactivity to peer feedback is predictive of adolescents' depression risk. Examining variation in emotional reactivity within currently depressed adolescents may identify subgroups that struggle the most with these daily interactions. We tested whether trait rumination, which amplifies emotional reactions, explained variance in depressed adolescents' physiological reactivity to peer feedback, hypothesizing that rumination wou…
Attentional bias to food cues in youth with loss of control eating
Effect of Mother's Dominance Rank on Offspring Temperament in Infant Rhesus Monkeys ( M acaca mulatta)
In humans, temperament plays an important role in socialization and personality. Some temperaments, such as behavioral inhibition are associated with an increased risk for psychopathology. Nonhuman primates can serve as a model for neurobiological and developmental contributions to emotional development and several recent studies have begun to investigate temperament in nonhuman primates. In rhesus monkeys, dominance rank is inherited from the mo…
Eye‐tracking with nonhuman primates is now more accessible than ever before
Human and nonhuman primates rely almost exclusively on vision for social communication. Therefore, tracking eye movements and examining visual scan paths can provide a wealth of information about many aspects of primate social information processing. Although eye‐tracking techniques have been utilized with humans for some time, similar studies in nonhuman primates have been less frequent over recent decades. This has largely been owing to the nee…

The social re-orientation of adolescence
Background. Many changes in social behavior take place during adolescence. Sexuality and romantic interests emerge during this time, and adolescents spend more time with peers and less time with parents and family. While such changes in social behavior have been well documented in the literature, relatively few neurophysiological explanations for these behavioral changes have been presented. Method. In this article we selectively review studies d…
Individual differences in the responses of naïve rhesus monkeys to snakes
The authors demonstrated individual differences in inhibited behavior and withdrawal responses of laboratory-born rhesus monkeys when initially exposed to a snake. Most monkeys displayed a small significant increase in their behavioral inhibition in the presence of a snake. A few monkeys had marked responses, and some actively withdrew. Although the responses of the most extreme laboratory-born monkeys were comparable to feral-born monkeys, the r…
