Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of attentional capture by reward signals in individuals with depression during classical conditioning.

Methods: A variant of the additional singleton paradigm was adopted with a high- or low-reward signal as the prominent distracting stimulus. In Experiment 1, 46 participants with depressive symptoms and 46 healthy controls were asked to conduct a keypress response to the visual target. In Experiment 2, 58 participants with depressive symptoms and 58 healthy controls were asked to conduct a fixation response to the visual target.

Results: In the keypress response task, the presence of high-reward signals slowed down the responses of participants in the control group, whereas the response times of individuals with depression were not significantly affected. In the fixation response task, when the high-reward signal was presented, individuals with depression were more likely to choose the target location as the first saccade destination, compared with healthy controls. In addition, individuals with depression exhibited fewer oculomotor capture by high-reward signals than healthy controls, a trait which was closely linked to the enhanced saccadic inhibition.

Conclusion: The results of our study indicated that individuals with depression exhibited an abnormality in attentional capture by reward-related conditioned stimuli during classical conditioning.

有抑郁症状的人对奖励信号的反作用注意捕捉的免疫力。

研究目的本研究旨在探讨抑郁症患者在经典条件反射过程中被奖励信号吸引注意力的特点：方法：采用额外单子范式的变体，以高或低奖励信号作为突出的分心刺激。在实验 1 中，46 名抑郁症状参与者和 46 名健康对照者被要求对视觉目标做出按键反应。在实验 2 中，58 名抑郁症状参与者和 58 名健康对照者被要求对视觉目标做出固定反应：在按键反应任务中，高回报信号的存在减慢了对照组参与者的反应速度，而抑郁症患者的反应时间没有受到明显影响。在固定反应任务中，当出现高回报信号时，与健康对照组相比，抑郁症患者更倾向于选择目标位置作为第一个囊回目标。此外，与健康对照组相比，抑郁症患者对高回报信号的眼动捕捉更少，这一特征与眼动抑制的增强密切相关：我们的研究结果表明，在经典条件反射过程中，抑郁症患者对与奖赏相关的条件刺激的注意捕捉存在异常。

期刊介绍： The major focus of Behaviour Research and Therapy is an experimental psychopathology approach to understanding emotional and behavioral disorders and their prevention and treatment, using cognitive, behavioral, and psychophysiological (including neural) methods and models. This includes laboratory-based experimental studies with healthy, at risk and subclinical individuals that inform clinical application as well as studies with clinically severe samples. The following types of submissions are encouraged: theoretical reviews of mechanisms that contribute to psychopathology and that offer new treatment targets; tests of novel, mechanistically focused psychological interventions, especially ones that include theory-driven or experimentally-derived predictors, moderators and mediators; and innovations in dissemination and implementation of evidence-based practices into clinical practice in psychology and associated fields, especially those that target underlying mechanisms or focus on novel approaches to treatment delivery. In addition to traditional psychological disorders, the scope of the journal includes behavioural medicine (e.g., chronic pain). The journal will not consider manuscripts dealing primarily with measurement, psychometric analyses, and personality assessment.
