Schizophrenia Individuals with schizophrenia experience social exclusion at a higher rate than the general population, but the Cyberball specific psychological and cognitive consequences for this group are unknown. We manipulated social exclusion Social exclusion in 35 participants with schizophrenia and 34 demographically-matched healthy controls using Cyberball, a Cognition virtual ball-tossing game in which participants believed that they were either being included or excluded by peers. All participants completed both versions of the task (inclusion, exclusion) on separate visits, as well as measures of psychological need security, working memory, and social cognition. Following social exclusion, individuals with schizophrenia showed decreased psychological need security and working memory. Contrary to expectations, they showed an improved ability to detect lies on the social cognitive task.

  • Social Neuroscience and Psychopathology: Identifying the Relationship Between Neural Function, Social Cognition, and Social Beha
    Hooker, C.I. (2014). Social Neuroscience and Psychopathology, Chapter to appear in Social Neuroscience: Mind, Brain, and Society Social Neuroscience and Psychopathology: Identifying the relationship between neural function, social cognition, and social behavior Christine I. Hooker, Ph.D. ***************************** Learning Goals: 1. Identify main categories of social and emotional processing and primary neural regions supporting each process. 2. Identify main methodological challenges of research on the neural basis of social behavior in psychopathology and strategies for addressing these challenges. 3. Identify how research in the three social processes discussed in detail – social learning, self-regulation, and theory of mind – inform our understanding of psychopathology. Summary Points: 1. Several psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia and autism, are characterized by social functioning deficits, but there are few interventions that effectively address social problems. 2. Treatment development is hindered by research challenges that limit knowledge about the neural systems that support social behavior, how those neural systems and associated social behaviors are compromised in psychopathology, and how the social environment influences neural function, social behavior, and symptoms of psychopathology. 3. These research challenges can be addressed by tailoring experimental design to optimize sensitivity of both neural and social measures as well as reduce confounds associated with psychopathology. 4. Investigations on the neural mechanisms of social learning, self-regulation, and Theory of Mind provide examples of methodological approaches that can inform our understanding of psychopathology. 5. High-levels of neuroticism, which is a vulnerability for anxiety disorders, is related to hypersensitivity of the amygdala during social fear learning. 6. High-levels of social anhedonia, which is a vulnerability for schizophrenia- spectrum disorders, is related to reduced lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) activity 1 Hooker, C.I.

Social relationships in humans and animals are governed by social organization rules, which modulate inhibitory control and coping strategies against stress. Social stress is associ- ated with compulsive alcohol and drug use, pointing towards a determining factor in an increased vulnerability to inhibitory control deficit. The goal of the present review is to assess the implication of social stress and dominance on the vulnerability to develop impulsive and/or compulsive spectrum disorders, with the aid of the information provided by animal models. A systematic search strategy was carried out on the PubMed and Web of Science databases, and the most relevant information was structured in the text and tables. A total of 34 studies were recruited in the qualitative synthesis.

  • Are All Chronic Social Stressors the Same? Behavioral, Physiological
    https://doi.org/10.24839/2325-7342.JN23.5.376 Are All Chronic Social Stressors the Same? Behavioral, Physiological, and Neural Responses to Two Social Stressors in a Female Mouse Model of Anxiety and Depression Michael R. Jarcho*, Siena College and Loras College; Madeline R. Avery, Loras College; Kelsey B. Kornacker , Danielle Hollingshead, and David Y. Lo*, Coe College ABSTRACT. Chronic stress has been associated with several negative health outcomes and psychopathological conditions, and social stressors (e.g., exclusion from a group, loss of a loved one) can be particularly problematic with regard to psychopathological conditions. Social isolation or instability can result in both behavioral and physiological stress responses. The present study attempted to assess whether the behavioral and physiological markers of stress would follow similar patterns in response to both social isolation and instability. By employing both of these models of social stress in female mice, we hoped to determine which might serve as a more appropriate model of stress-induced anxiety or depression in women. One behavioral index of anxiety, rearing behavior, was elevated only in animals experiencing social instability, F(2, 351) = 6.91, p = .001, η2 = .04, (1-b) = 0.94. Despite small sample sizes, gene expression of proinflammatory markers interleukin one beta receptor and tumor necrosis factor alpha were significantly elevated in hippocampal samples from mice that experienced either social stressor compared to controls, IL1-beta receptor, F(2, 6) = 5.65, p = .045, η2 = .85, (1-b) = 0.99, TNF alpha, F(2, 6) = 8.89, p = .042, η2 = .86, (1-b) = 0.99, with the highest levels in mice that experienced social instability.

  • Chronic Social Defeat Stress Impairs Goal-Directed Behavior Through Dysregulation of Ventral Hippocampal Activity in Male Mice
    www.nature.com/npp ARTICLE OPEN Chronic social defeat stress impairs goal-directed behavior through dysregulation of ventral hippocampal activity in male mice Keitaro Yoshida1, Michael R. Drew 2, Anna Kono1, Masaru Mimura1, Norio Takata 1 and Kenji F. Tanaka 1 Chronic stress is a risk factor for a variety of psychiatric disorders, including depression. Although impairments to motivated behavior are a major symptom of clinical depression, little is known about the circuit mechanisms through which stress impairs motivation. Furthermore, research in animal models for depression has focused on impairments to hedonic aspects of motivation, whereas patient studies suggest that impairments to appetitive, goal-directed motivation contribute significantly to motivational impairments in depression. Here, we characterized goal-directed motivation in repeated social defeat stress (R-SDS), a well- established mouse model for depression in male mice. R-SDS impaired the ability to sustain and complete goal-directed behavior in a food-seeking operant lever-press task. Furthermore, stress-exposed mice segregated into susceptible and resilient subpopulations. Interestingly, susceptibility to stress-induced motivational impairments was unrelated to stress-induced social withdrawal, another prominent effect of R-SDS in mouse models. Based on evidence that ventral hippocampus (vHP) modulates sustainment of goal-directed behavior, we monitored vHP activity during the task using fiber photometry. Successful task completion was associated with suppression of ventral hippocampal neural activity. This suppression was diminished after R-SDS in 1234567890();,: stress-susceptible but not stress-resilient mice. The serotonin selective reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) escitalopram and ketamine both normalized vHP activity during the task and restored motivated behavior.

However, studies have not examined the association of schizotypy with real-world expression of psychotic-like, paranoid, and negative symptoms. The present study employed experience-sampling methodology (ESM) to assess positive and negative schizotypy in daily life in a nonclinical sample of 206 Spanish young adults. Participants were prompted randomly 8 times daily for 1 week to complete assessments of their current symptoms and experiences. Positive schizotypy was associated with psychotic-like and paranoid symptoms in daily life. Negative schizotypy was associated with a subset of these symptoms and with negative symptoms in daily life. Momentary stress was associated with psychotic-like and paranoid symptoms, but only for those high in positive schizotypy.
