Here you can find the entire article selection of the special issue: www.sciencedirect.com/special-issu.... It was a great pleasure working on this and I hope it will help further spread this burgeoning field.

Thanks @soerenkrach.bsky.social and team for this nice collaborative work!

At the same time, dep was not associated with an enhanced integration of negative feedback. Thus, the results are well-consistent with a recent meta-analysis on belief updating deficits in depression: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Yet, one more article is to come: the editorial by Jonas and me that introduces the special issue in its entirety. Stay tuned!

It was a great pleasure to organise this special issue together with Jonas Everaert. Thanks to all authors for submitting their work to it and to all reviewers who dedicated their time to it as well! Thanks to Michelle Craske for inviting me to organise this and give the topic such a nice platform!

Hi @jensfoell.de, vielen Dank für die Anfrage! Prinzipiell fände ich das interessant, aber auf absehbare Zeit sehe ich nicht, wie ich dafür Kapazitäten aufbringen kann, da ich erst vor relativ kurzem meine Professur in FFM begonnen habe und dort alle Hände voll zu tun habe an diversen Ecken.

From my perspective, an intriguing finding from this study is that the two factors are relatively independent from each other. You could expect the level of fear to reduce when expectancies are violated, and vice versa, but the authors show that these factors independently predict treatment outcome.

Thanks to Edith in particular for this nice work, but also to @neutrophine.bsky.social and Julia Glombiewski for supporting this research!

Why is this relevant? How we search for information determines the subjective reality each of us construes. Understanding the biases people with dep symptoms have in this information seeking process may thus explain why they often end up with a negative view of themselves and the world.

Key findings: i) Depression is related to a greater incongruence between self-perception and anticipated perception by others; that is, people with dep symptoms view themselves more negatively than they expect to be viewed by others. ii) Depression is overall reduced to less feedback seeking.

Unfortunately, in the production process, the publisher confused Figure 1 with a figure that was actually supposed to be presented in the supplementary material only. Here's the real Figure 1, which is missing now in main article 🙈🤷‍♂️.

Key findings: 1) the greater the expectation-outcome discrepancy, the greater the update; 2) in the entire (non-clinical) sample greater update for positive expectation-outcome discrepancies than for negative ones; 3) depressive symptoms related to more neg updating following neg social experiences
