Abstract

Increased rates of depression beginning in adolescence are thought to be attributed in part to marked developmental changes in reward systems and interpersonal relationships. Blunted reward response has been observed in depression and this may be shaped in part by social experiences, raising questions about the combined associations of parental conflict, depression, and reward response in both social and monetary domains. The present study used the reward positivity (RewP), an event-related potential that indexes both monetary and social reward processing, to examine the unique and combined associations of parental conflict and depressive symptoms on reward responsiveness in adolescents with clinical depression (N = 70) 14–18 years of age (M = 15.81, SD = 1.46; 65.7% female). Results indicated that depressive symptoms interacted with maternal conflict in characterizing the RewP to social, but not monetary, rewards. Specifically, higher levels of current depressive symptoms and potentiated maternal conflict together were associated with an attenuated RewP to social rewards in this clinical sample. We found no significant effects of paternal conflict. This investigation highlights maternal conflict as an important environmental factor for reward responsiveness and also emphasizes the utility of examining social reward responsiveness in depression in order to better understand the impacts of contextual factors.

Results were consistent when scoring the social RewP at the earlier time window of 250–350 ms. The overall model accounted for 28% of the variance in the social RewP, R2 = 0.28. Notably, the most variance was explained when considering the interaction of current depressive symptoms and maternal conflict, B = − 0.03, SE = 0.01, β = − 0.46, p < .001. The Johnson-Neyman technique and simple slopes analyses revealed that the interaction was significant such that at high levels (+ 1 SD) of maternal conflict, more depressive symptoms were associated with a blunted social RewP (t (63) = -4.45, p < .001) and at low levels (-1 SD) of maternal conflict, more depressive symptoms were associated with a larger social RewP, t (63) = 2.52, p =. 014. Depressive symptoms did not significantly relate to the social RewP at mean levels of maternal conflict, t (63) = − 0.96, p = .340.
