No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will assess learning bias (the tendency to learn more from negative relative to positive outcomes) at baseline in 3 groups of participants (currently depressed, previously depressed and never depressed). It will then try to modify this bias using a simple computerised training task completed at home daily for 2 weeks. Outcome measures include symptoms of depression, cognitive measures (i.e. accuracy and reaction time during completion of tasks), pupillometry measures and salivary cortisol.
