Abstract Despite the increasing availability of Open Science (OS) infrastructure and rise in policies to change behaviour, OS practices are not yet norm. While pioneering researchers developing practices, majority sticks status quo. To transition common practice, we must engage a critical proportion academic community. In this transition, Communities (OSCs) play key role. OSCs bottom-up learning groups scholars that discuss within across disciplines. They make knowledge more accessible...
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is the leading cause of disability worldwide. The cardinal features MDD are depressed mood and anhedonia. Anhedonia defined as a "markedly diminished interest or pleasure in all, almost activities day", has generally been investigated on group-level using retrospective data (e.g. via questionnaire/interview). However, inferences based findings not necessarily generalize to daily life experiences within individuals. We repeatedly sampled pleasurable...
Anhedonia, the decreased interest and pleasure, is often described as 'flat' or 'blunted' positive affect (PA). Yet, little known about PA functioning in anhedonic individuals' daily lives. The current study investigates reactivity to pleasurable experiences anhedonia together with its relevant temporal dynamics (i.e., variability, instability, inertia), expands knowledge by exploring role of arousal therein.Using Experience Sampling Method (ESM), we collected 90 assessments real-life across...
The Experience Sampling Method (ESM) is increasingly used by researchers from various disciplines to answer novel questions about individuals’ daily lives. Measurement best practices have long been overlooked in ESM research, and recent reviews show that item quality often not reported studies. absence of information may partly be explained the lack consensus on how should evaluated.

In recent years, the advancement of open science has led to data sharing becoming more common practice. Data availability clear merits for as it opens up possibilities re-use datasets by others, leading less redundancy, efficiency, and transparency. The ideal is scientific be possible FAIR: Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable. Parallel this development, times have seen stringent guidelines with respect privacy, culminating in General Protection Regulation law, or GDPR. Navigating...
In 2001, Anderson and Green [2001. Suppressing unwanted memories by executive control. Nature, 410(6826), 366-369] showed memory suppression using a novel Think/No-think (TNT) task. When participants attempted to prevent studied words from entering awareness, they reported fewer of those than baseline in subsequent cued recall (i.e., effect). The TNT literature contains predominantly positive findings few null-results. Therefore we report unpublished replications conducted the 2000s (N = 49;...
In this short review, we describe recent trends from Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) research investigating positive affect (PA) in relation to mood disorders. Aside notable exceptions (e.g. mania), most disorders involve relatively lower levels of PA daily life, often combined with a larger level variability PA. reaction events, studies show puzzling 'mood brightening' effect individuals disorder symptoms that suggests hyper responsiveness real-life rewards. Studies into anhedonia...
Anhedonia reflects a dysfunction in the reward system, which can be manifested an inability to enjoy pleasurable situations (i.e., lack of positive emotions), but also by motivation engage activities motivation).Little is known about interrelations between emotions and daily life, whether these associations are altered anhedonic individuals.In present study, we used network approach explore reciprocal, lagged individuals (N ϭ 66) controls 68).Participants (aged 18 24 years) filled out...
In psychiatric genetics research, the volume of ambivalent findings on gene-environment interactions (G x E) is growing at an accelerating pace. response to surging suspicions systematic distortion, we challenge notion chance capitalization as a possible contributor. Beyond qualifying multiple testing mere methodological issue that, if uncorrected, leads capitalization, advance towards illustrating potential benefits tests in understanding equivocal evidence literature.We focused interaction...
Anhedonia is generally defined as the inability to feel pleasure in response experiences that are usually enjoyable. one of two core symptoms depression and a major public health concern. has proven particularly difficult counteract predicts poor treatment generally. It often been hypothesized anhedonia can be deterred by healthy lifestyle. However, it quite unlikely one-size-fits-all approach will effective for everyone. In this study effects personalized lifestyle advice based on observed...
Abstract Encouraging engagement in rewarding or pleasant activities is one of the most important treatment goals for depression. Mental imagery exercises have been shown to increase motivation planned behaviour lab but it unclear whether this also case daily life. Therefore, we aimed investigate effect mental on and Participants with depressive symptoms ( N = 59) were randomly assigned a group receiving (MI) control relaxation (RE) via study phones. We employed an experience sampling design...
Besides assessment of forensic patients’ risk future violence and criminogenic needs, knowledge on their responsivity to treatment is equally important. However, instruments currently used for are not sensitive enough evaluation. Therefore, the Instrument Forensic Treatment Evaluation (IFTE) was developed. The IFTE a evaluation tool, which uses dynamic items Dutch HKT-R (Historical, Clinical, Future–Revised). has an extended answering scale, makes it more measuring change enables clinicians...
Day-to-day experiences are accompanied by feelings of Positive Affect (PA) and Negative (NA). Implicitly, without conscious processing, individuals learn about the reward punishment value each context activity. These associative learning processes, in turn, affect probability that will re-engage such activities or seek out context. So far, implicit processes almost exclusively investigated controlled laboratory settings not daily life. Here we aimed to replicate first study real life, means...
Open Science (OS) increases the quality, efficiency, and impact of science. This has been widely recognised by scholars, funders, policy makers. However, despite increasing availability infrastructure supporting OS rise in policies incentives to change behavior, practices are not yet norm. While pioneering researchers developing embracing practices, majority sticks status quo. To transition from common practice, we need engage a critical proportion academic community. In this transition,...
Background: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is the leading cause of disability worldwide. The cardinal features MDD are depressed mood and anhedonia. Anhedonia defined as a “markedly diminished interest or pleasure in all, almost activities day”, yet has never been investigated daily life patients diagnosed with MDD. We address this gap knowledge by means Ecological Momentary Assessments (EMA). Methods: sampled Positive Affect (PA) reward experiences on 10 semi-random time points day, for...
Psychological resilience, as a potential protective factor, has been linked to enhanced wellbeing and reduced psychopathology. This study investigated the predictors, associations, prospective effects of resilience daily hassles in both short-term (across days) long-term months) contexts.

Engagement in activities increases positive affect (Reward Path 1), which subsequently reinforces motivation 2), and hence future engagement 3). Strong connections between these three reward loop components are considered adaptive, might be disturbed depression. Although some ecological nomentary assessment (EMA) studies have investigated the cross-sectional association separate paths individuals' level of depression, no EMA study has looked into strength depressive symptom course.

The Domains Of Pleasure Scale (DOPS) is a newly developed questionnaire designed to measure the multifaceted aspects of pleasure. It assesses levels pleasure across different domains (e.g., social, physical). psychometric properties DOPS were tested in two studies (Study 1: N = 2937, Mage 21.4 years, SD 1.9; Study 2: 1187, 22.84, 2.23). In line with view experiences, comparisons one factor solution showed that may be best investigated domain specific rather than aggregated over all items....
