Brief Summary:
Major depression (MD) is common during adolescence and associated with significant morbidity and mortality. One important factor for the development and maintenance of adolescent MD are disturbances in emotion regulation, including deficits in cognitive reappraisal (CR). CR is a particularly effective emotion regulation strategy that aims at reinterpreting emotional events to modify affective responses. Adolescents with MD apply this strategy less often than their healthy peers and show disturbances in brain activation patterns underlying CR.
In this study, MD adolescents will be randomly assigned to a group that receives a task-based training in CR or to a control training group. It will be examined whether the task-based CR training is superior to the control training with regard to improvements in negative affect, perceived stress in daily life and depressive symptoms. Moreover, during the four training sessions, the event-related potential "Late Positive Potential" (LPP) will be recorded to assess neurophysiological indices of CR processes and gaze fixations on emotional areas within negative pictures and affective responses to pictures will be collected to identify mechanisms underlying training effects.This study will provide first evidence for the efficacy of a short-time training that has previously shown to be effective in healthy individuals. Moreover, the study will identify neurobiological mechanisms that predict training effects. The results of this investigation will lay the ground for a clinical trial to investigate whether a CR training added to an established intervention improves treatment effects for adolescent MD.
