  • prospective associations of low Positive Emotionality with first onsets of depressive and anxiety disorders results from a 10 wave latent trait state modeling study
    Journal of Abnormal Psychology, 2015
    Co-Authors: Ashley D Kendall, Lyuba Bobova, Jason M Prenoveau, Richard E. Zinbarg, Susan Mineka, William Revelle, Michelle G Craske
    Abstract:

    Unipolar depressive disorders and anxiety disorders co-occur at high rates and can be difficult to distinguish from one another. Cross-sectional evidence has demonstrated that whereas all these disorders are characterized by high negative emotion, low Positive emotion shows specificity in its associations with depressive disorders, social anxiety disorder, and possibly generalized anxiety disorder. However, it remains unknown whether low Positive Emotionality, a personality trait characterized by the tendency to experience low Positive emotion over time, prospectively marks risk for the initial development of these disorders. We aimed to help address this gap. Each year for up to 10 waves, participants (n = 627, mean age = 17 years at baseline) completed self-report measures of mood and personality and a structured clinical interview. A latent trait-state decomposition technique was used to model Positive Emotionality and related personality traits over the first 3 years of the study. Survival analyses were used to test the prospective associations of low Positive Emotionality with first onsets of disorders over the subsequent 6-year follow-up among participants with no relevant disorder history. The results showed that low Positive Emotionality was a risk marker for depressive disorders, social anxiety disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder, although evidence for its specificity to these disorders versus the remaining anxiety disorders was inconclusive. Additional analyses revealed that the risk effects were largely accounted for by the overlap of low Positive Emotionality with neuroticism. The implications for understanding the role of Positive Emotionality in depressive disorders and anxiety disorders are discussed.

  • Positive and Negative Emotionality at Age 3 Predicts Change in Frontal EEG Asymmetry across Early Childhood
    Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, 2019
    Co-Authors: Brandon L. Goldstein, Thomas M. Olino, Stewart A. Shankman, Autumn Kujawa, Margaret W Dyson, Dana C. Torpey-newman, Daniel N. Klein
    Abstract:

    Depression is characterized by low Positive Emotionality (PE) and high negative Emotionality (NE), as well as asymmetries in resting electroencephalography (EEG) alpha power. Moreover, frontal asymmetry has itself been linked to PE, NE, and related constructs. However, little is known about associations of temperamental PE and NE with resting EEG asymmetries in young children and whether this association changes as a function of development. In a longitudinal study of 254 three-year old children, we assessed PE and NE at age 3 using a standard laboratory observation procedure. Frontal EEG asymmetries were assessed at age 3 and three years later at age 6. We observed a significant three-way interaction of preschool PE and NE and age at assessment for asymmetry at F3-F4 electrode sites, such that children with both low PE and high NE developed a pattern of increasingly lower relative left-frontal cortical activity over time. In addition, F7-F8 asymmetry was predicted by a PE by time interaction, such that the frontal asymmetry in children with high PE virtually disappeared by age 6. Overall, these findings suggest that early temperament is associated with developmental changes in frontal asymmetry, and that the combination of low PE and high NE predicts the development of the pattern of frontal symmetry that is associated with depression.

  • early childhood cortisol reactivity moderates the effects of parent child relationship quality on the development of children s temperament in early childhood
    Developmental Science, 2017
    Co-Authors: Daniel C Kopalasibley, Margret W. Dyson, Rebecca S. Laptook, Sara J. Bufferd, Lea R Dougherty, Thomas M. Olino, Daniel N. Klein
    Abstract:

    Positive parenting has been related both to lower cortisol reactivity and more adaptive temperament traits in children, whereas elevated cortisol reactivity may be related to maladaptive temperament traits, such as higher negative Emotionality (NE) and lower Positive Emotionality (PE). However, no studies have examined whether hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activity, as measured by cortisol reactivity, moderates the effect of the quality of the parent–child relationship on changes in temperament in early childhood. In this study, 126 3-year-olds were administered the Laboratory Temperament Assessment Battery (Lab-TAB; Goldsmith et al., 1995) as a measure of temperamental NE and PE. Salivary cortisol was collected from the child at 4 time points during this task. The primary parent and the child completed the Teaching Tasks battery (Egeland et al., 1995), from which the quality of the relationship was coded. At age 6, children completed the Lab-TAB again. From age 3 to 6, adjusting for age 3 PE or NE, a better quality relationship with their primary parent predicted decreases in NE for children with elevated cortisol reactivity and predicted increases in PE for children with low cortisol reactivity. Results have implications for our understanding of the interaction of biological stress systems and the parent–child relationship in the development of temperament in childhood.

  • neural reactivity to monetary rewards and losses in childhood longitudinal and concurrent associations with observed and self reported Positive Emotionality
    Biological Psychology, 2015
    Co-Authors: Autumn Kujawa, Thomas M. Olino, Greg Hajcak Proudfit, Ellen M Kessel, Margaret W Dyson, Daniel N. Klein
    Abstract:

    Abstract Reward reactivity and Positive emotion are key components of a theoretical, early-emerging approach motivational system, yet few studies have examined associations between Positive emotion and neural reactivity to reward across development. In this multi-method prospective study, we examined the association of laboratory observations of Positive Emotionality (PE) at age 3 and self-reported Positive affect (PA) at age 9 with an event-related potential component sensitive to the relative response to winning vs. losing money, the feedback negativity (ΔFN), at age 9 (N = 381). Males had a larger ΔFN than females, and both greater observed PE at age 3 and self-reported PA at age 9 significantly, but modestly, predicted an enhanced ΔFN at age 9. Negative Emotionality and behavioral inhibition did not predict ΔFN. Results contribute to understanding the neural correlates of PE and suggest that the FN and PE may be related to the same biobehavioral approach system.

  • the serotonin transporter promoter polymorphism and childhood Positive and negative Emotionality
    Emotion, 2010
    Co-Authors: Elizabeth P. Hayden, Haroon I. Sheikh, Lea R Dougherty, Thomas M. Olino, Daniel N. Klein, Margaret W Dyson, Emily C Durbin, Shiva M. Singh
    Abstract:

    Association studies of the serotonin transporter promoter polymorphism (5-HTTLPR) and negative Emotionality (NE) are inconclusive. However, emerging evidence suggests that the association between this polymorphism and NE may be influenced by levels of another temperament trait, Positive Emotionality (PE). Therefore, this study examined whether the association between the 5-HTTLPR and NE was moderated by PE. A community sample of 413 three-year-old children completed a standardized battery of laboratory tasks designed to tap temperamental Emotionality. Children were also genotyped for the 5-HTTLPR. No direct association between 5-HTTLPR genotype and NE was found. However, the interaction of child PE and NE predicted 5-HTTLPR genotype. Furthermore, children with a short allele who were also low in PE had significantly greater NE than children without a short allele or children with high PE. Our findings suggest that the short allele of the 5-HTTLPR is associated with NE only in the context of low PE. Inconsistent links between NE and this gene in previous research may stem from the failure to consider other temperament traits that moderate associations.

  • Co-Occurring Trajectories of Depression and Social Anxiety in Childhood and Adolescence: Interactive Effects of Positive Emotionality and Domains of Chronic Interpersonal Stress
    Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, 2020
    Co-Authors: Julianne M. Griffith, Erin E. Long, Jami F. Young, Benjamin L. Hankin
    Abstract:

    Deficits in Positive Emotionality (PE) have been implicated in the etiology of both social anxiety and depression; however, factors that contribute to divergent social anxiety and depression outcomes among youth low in PE remain unknown. Extant research suggests that parent-child stress and peer stress demonstrate differential patterns of associations with social anxiety and depression. Thus, the present study examined prospective interactive effects of PE and chronic parent-child and peer stress on simultaneously developing trajectories of social anxiety and depression symptoms among 543 boys and girls (age 8–16 at baseline, M[SD] = 11.94[2.32] 55.6% female). Parents reported on youth PE at baseline. Domains of chronic interpersonal (parent-child and peer) stress occurring between baseline and 18-months were assessed via child-report by trained interviews using the Youth Life Stress Interview (Rudolph and Flynn Development and Psychopathology , 19 (2), 497–521, 2007 ). Youth completed self-report measures of depression and social anxiety every three months from 18- to 36- months (7 assessments). Conditional bivariate latent growth curve models indicated that main effects of parent-child stress, but not peer stress, predicted trajectories of depression in boys and girls. In girls, high levels of chronic interpersonal stress in both domains predicted stable, elevated trajectories of social anxiety symptoms regardless of PE. In boys, PE contributed to a pattern of differential susceptibility whereby boys high in PE were particularly susceptible to the effects of chronic interpersonal stress, for better or worse.

  • mediational pathways through which Positive and negative Emotionality contribute to anhedonic symptoms of depression a prospective study of adolescents
    Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, 2009
    Co-Authors: Emily K Wetter, Benjamin L. Hankin
    Abstract:

    This study takes a developmental psychopathological approach to examine mechanisms through which baseline levels of Positive Emotionality (PE) and negative Emotionality (NE) prospectively predict increases in anhedonic depressive symptoms in a community sample of 350 adolescents (6th-10th graders). Dependent stressors mediated the relationship between baseline levels of NE and anhedonic depressive symptoms after controlling for initial symptoms. Supportive relationships mediated the relationship between baseline levels of PE and anhedonic depressive symptoms, after controlling for baseline symptoms. In addition, NE X PE interacted to predict later anhedonic depressive symptoms, such that adolescents with low levels of PE and high levels of NE experienced the greatest increase in anhedonic depressive symptoms. Last, supportive relationships interacted with baseline PE to predict prospective changes in anhedonic depressive symptoms, such that adolescents with low PE and low supportive relationships experienced the greatest increase in anhedonic depressive symptoms. Results are discussed in terms of current theoretical models of the link between temperament and depression.
