We investigate whether the amplification of positive affect during conflict discussions or “up regulation” between adolescent romantic partners functions to prevent or terminate interpersonal conflict. Unfortunately, this up regulation strategy may also result in unresolved relationship problems, and ultimately increase adolescent depressive symptoms. The concept of coercion is reviewed as it applies to conflict resolution and avoidance in a sample of 80 adolescent romantic relationships. Results from multilevel hazard models showed that longer durations of observed upregulation states predicted increases in depressive symptoms in both males and females over the course of 2 years. In addition, female depression predicted slower exits from coercive states, which in turn predicted higher levels of males’ depressive symptoms. Implications of these findings are discussed, as well as the possibility that positive affect can be negatively reinforced when it functions to avoid conflict in recently formed close relationships.

AbstractBackgroundLarge population-based studies of neuropsychological factors that characterize or precede depressive symptoms are rare. Most studies use small case-control or cross-sectional designs, which may cause selection bias and cannot test temporality. In a large UK population-based cohort we investigated cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between executive control of positive and negative information and adolescent depressive symptoms.MethodsCohort study of 2315 UK adolescents (ALSPAC) who completed an affective go/no-go task at age 18. Depressive symptoms were assessed with the Clinical Interview Schedule Revised (CIS-R) and short Mood and Feeling Questionnaire (sMFQ) at age 18, and with the sMFQ 15 months later. Analyses were linear multilevel regressions (for cross-sectional associations) and traditional linear regressions (for longitudinal associations), before and after adjustment for confounders.ResultsCross-sectionally, at age 18, there was some evidence that adolescents with more depressive symptoms made more errors in executive control (after adjustments, errors increased by 0.17 of a point per 1 SD increase in sMFQ score, 95% CI 0.08 to 0.25). However, this cross-sectional association was not observed for the CIS-R (.03, 95% CI -.06 to .12). There was no evidence of a difference in executive control errors according to valence. Longitudinally, there was no evidence that reduced executive control was associated with future depressive symptoms.ConclusionsExecutive control of positive and negative information does not appear to be a marker of current or future depressive symptoms in adolescents and would therefore not be a useful target in interventions to prevent adolescent depression. According to our evidence, the affective go/no-go task is also not a good candidate for future neuroimaging studies of adolescent depression.

AbstractMindfulness has been associated with fewer negative mental health symptoms during adolescence, but fewer studies have examined longitudinal associations between mindfulness and symptoms in conjunction with two vulnerability factors for psychopathology with mindfulness: rumination and impulsivity. This study examined longitudinal associations between internalizing symptoms (depression, anxiety, stress), mindfulness, rumination, and impulsivity over a one-year period among 352 Spanish adolescents (57.4% girls; M = 14.47, SD = 1.34). Participants completed self-reported measures of symptoms, mindfulness, rumination, and impulsivity at two time points. Mindfulness negatively predicted stress and depressive symptoms, and a bidirectional negative association was found between mindfulness and impulsivity. Impulsivity positively predicted stress, and anxiety positively predicted depressive symptoms, stress, and rumination. This study highlights the importance of mindfulness as a protective factor and impulsivity and anxiety as risk factors for internalizing symptoms throughout adolescence. These findings build on previous studies that examined longitudinal associations between mindfulness and symptoms by including rumination and impulsivity’s roles.
