Content By: Schwartz, K.T.G, Kryza-Lacombe, M., Liuzzi, M.T., Weersing, V.R., and Wiggins, J.L. (2019). Social and non-social reward: A preliminary examination of clinical improvement and neural reactivity in adolescents treated with behavioral therapy for anxiety and depression. San Diego State University, San Diego, California frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 13 (177): https://doi.org/10.3389/fnbeh.2019.00177

Course Description: Pediatric anxiety and depression are highly prevalent disorders that may co-occur. There is emerging evidence linking treatment response to brain patterns of reward processing. Neural responses to both social (Face Task) and non-social (Piñata Task) tasks were separately identified via whole-brain activation and functional connectivity analyses. Overall, varying neural regions (frontal and temporal) that were found to be related to clinical improvement, within the context of social versus non-social rewards, were similar to regions that have evidenced support for reward processing in normative samples.

Learning Objectives:

  • Apply neural circuitry concepts related to reward processing for the pediatric population
  • Identify the differences between the Face Task (social) and the Piñata Task (non-social) to understand the impact of each task context on neural reactivity to the reward
  • Evaluate the statistical findings, the way each reward was observed in various regions of the brain, and review the conclusions

Course Outline:

  1. Read Social and Non-social Reward: A Preliminary Examination of Clinical Improvement and Neural Reactivity in Adolescents Treated with Behavioral Therapy for Anxiety and Depression
  2. Review the Course Description and Learning Objectives
  3. Consider varying brain patterns of reward processing with the statistical results in the accompanying article
  4. Complete the post-test questions; keep in mind that the answers should come from the provided article
  5. Return to the article for any missed questions and/or to help further understand social (Face Task) and non-social (Piñata Task) reward processing in the pediatric population
