A test of a cognitive diathesis-stress generation pathway in early adolescent depression.

30 Jul 2009 This study evaluates a pathway for depressive risk that integrates cognitive diathesis-stress and stress-generation theories, following Hankin and Abramson's (2001, Journal of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology, 31(4), 491-504) elaborated ...

A mixed-effects expectancy-valence model for the Iowa gambling task.

30 Jul 2009 The Iowa gambling task (IGT; Bechara, Damasio, Damasio, & Anderson, 1994) was developed to simulate real-life decision making under uncertainty. The task has been widely used to examine possible neurocognitive deficits in normal and clinical ...
