Исследование настроения и мыслительного процесса (MAT Process)
Аффективное исполнительное функционирование как механизм лечения симптомов депрессии
The primary objective for this project is to test whether affective executive functioning is a mechanism of action of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy and Wellness for Wellbeing. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Test the effect of MBCT vs. Wellness for Wellbeing on affective inhibition (i.e., emotionally valenced inhibition as measured via the affective Go/No Go task) using an RCT.
- Test the effect of MBCT vs. Wellness for Wellbeing on (a) affective updating and (b) affective shifting. Outcomes will be measured with the affective n-Back and the affective Internal Switching Task, respectively.
3a) The investigators will examine whether depression symptom severity co-varies with change in affective executive functioning (i.e., affecting inhibition, shifting, and updating) over time. 3b) The investigators will examine whether compliance with treatment protocol (e.g., number of classes attended, amount of home practice) predicts endpoint executive functioning.
Participants will complete surveys, interviews, and computer tasks, and will be randomized to either Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy or Wellness for Wellbeing.

Подробное описание
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is an efficacious treatment for patients with symptoms of depression. However, the processes by which MBCT achieves its outcomes are not well understood. Drawing on literature on basic cognitive functioning and cognitive biases in depression, this K23 will use a randomized controlled trial to test the effect of MBCT vs. Wellness for Wellbeing on affective inhibition (an important component of executive functioning (EF)), and a possible mechanism of action by which MBCT has an impact on depression symptoms. As a secondary aim, this project will also test the effect of MBCT vs. Wellness for Wellbeing on affective updating and affective shifting (two remaining components of EF). In exploratory analyses, the investigators will examine whether depression symptom severity covaries with change in affective EF (i.e., affective inhibition, shifting, and updating) overtime, and whether adherence to the treatment protocol predicts endpoint EF. To accomplish these goals, 76 adult participants with elevated depression symptoms will be recruited from the community and will be randomized to either an 8-week MBCT course at the Mindfulness Center at Brown University or an 8-week Wellness for Wellbeing Class. Participants will complete validated computer-based tasks of affective EF at 4-assessments, 1 before, 2 during, and 1 after, the 8-week MBCT or Wellness for Wellbeing programs.

Экспериментальный: Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
MBCT classes are comprised of weekly, 2.5-hour classes in which participants learn cognitive therapy techniques and practice meditation exercises. Participants will complete group and/or individual orientation to MBCT with the MBCT instructor, 1-2 weeks prior to the first scheduled MBCT class. Additionally, MBCT requires 45-minutes of daily home practice, and a full day, 8-hour silent meditation retreat. MBCT classes are delivered via the protocol and curriculum developed by the MBCT founders. Participants randomized to MBCT will receive 8-weeks of MBCT classes. |

Активный компаратор: Wellness for Wellbeing
Wellness for Wellbeing will serve as the active control for MBCT. Participants randomized to Wellness for Wellbeing will receive 1-hour group delivered classes, once per week, for 8-weeks. Participants will receive an orientation to Wellness for Wellbeing 1-2 weeks prior to the first class. Classes will be delivered by a research therapist. Topics for Wellness for Wellbeing include: nutrition, caffeine, preventing cancer, diabetes, heart health, sleep, being a smart patient, and complementary and alternative medicine. Wellness for Wellbeing classes are interactive and do not include components designed to impact affective cognition in any way. Because participants may have varying levels of health literacy, the research therapist tailors presentation of the material to the participants' level of knowledge of the topic. Information presented in Wellness for Wellbeing is regularly updated with current health guidelines. |

Affective Go/No-Go
Временное ограничение: 10-week
|
This task requires utilizing inhibition to respond to word features (i.e., normal vs. italicized font) rather than word content. In this task, participants are told to respond (via key press) when a go stimulus (i.e., normal text) is presented and to withhold their response when a no-go stimulus (i.e., italicized text) is presented. words are negatively valenced (e.g., hate, sad) or positively valenced (e.g., terrific, win). Conditions are matched on word length and frequency of use in the English language. |

Emotional n-back
Временное ограничение: 10-week
|
Updating will be measured via the n-Back Task. Individuals are presented words on a computer screen, and are asked to indicate (via key press), whether the current word is the same or different from the word presented n times back. The investigators will be using 2-back trials, as these trials are not too difficult so that participants become frustrated, yet engage updating processes. The affective version of the task will be an adapted affective n-back task in which individuals are presented with negative and positive words, and asked to indicate via key press whether the word n-trials back matches the valence (positive or negative) of the current word. |
10-week

|
Affective Internal Switching Task
Временное ограничение: 10-week
|
Shifting will be measured via the Internal Switching Task (IST). Participants are presented with one word on the computer screen at a time, and are asked to keep a silent mental count of how many words they see from two semantic categories (i.e., positive affective words and negative affective words). Participants are instructed to press the spacebar when they have updated their mental count and are ready for the next word. Participants are asked to keep a mental count of how many positive and how many negative words appear in each category, and press the spacebar when they have updated their mental count. |
