Role of the Decision-Making Reference Point in Cognition and Psychopathology
Mood disorders are characterized by a tendency to subjectively evaluate objectively positive outcomes in a negative light. Using behavioral decision-making tasks informed by an understanding of how human expectations are set, we are testing the hypothesis that affective mood impacts the decision-making reference point—the computational instantiation of our expectations—and thus drives shifts in subjective value that mark mood pathologies like major depressive disorder (MDD). In this experiment, we recruit patients with depression and healthy controls to complete surveys, an in-person interview, and two computer games where they make a series of decisions about potential rewards. This study will last about 2-3 hours and will involve only 1 visit.
