Abstract

Longitudinal studies examining the role of response styles to positive affect (i.e., dampening and enhancing) for depressive symptoms have yielded inconsistent results. We examined concurrent and prospective relations of dampening and enhancing with depressive and anhedonic symptoms, and whether these relations depend on the frequency of uplifts. Early adolescents (N = 674, 51.6% girls, Mage = 12.7 years, range 11.3–14.9) completed questionnaires three times (one-year intervals). Dampening interacted with daily uplifts predicting concurrent depressive symptoms. Dampening was unrelated to depressive and anhedonic symptoms one year later. High dampening and low enhancing predicted relative increases in anhedonia over two years. Relationships did not differ for girls and boys. Therapeutic interventions designed to promote adaptive responding to positive affect may, thus, reduce anhedonia in adolescence.

The enhancing subscale was originally called positive rumination. Positive rumination, which could be seen as a form of enhancing, is further named enhancing to avoid confusion with rumination in response to negative affect.

For the cross-sectional regression analyses, there were ten outliers for both the anhedonic and depressive symptoms analyses at Time 1; there were four and five outliers for respectively the anhedonic and depressive symptoms analyses at Time 2; and there were six and four outliers for respectively the anhedonic and depressive symptoms analyses at Time 3. For the Time 2 to Time 3 regression analyses there were six outliers when anhedonia was the outcome and eight outliers when depressive symptoms was the outcome. For the Time 1 to Time 3 regression analyses there were nine outliers when anhedonia was the outcome and 11 outliers when depressive symptoms was the outcome.

Higher dampening and lower enhancing were associated with higher concurrent depressive and anhedonic symptoms.
