Social anhedonia, the decreased enjoyment of pleasant social experiences, is associated with depression. However, whether anhedonia in depression affects prosocial behaviours unclear. The current study aimed to examine how high levels depressive symptomatology young people affect responses usually rewarding situations, including helping behaviour.We recruited 46 females, 16 scoring on Beck Depression Inventory (BDI scores>20, Mage=19; HD) and 30 low (BDI<10, Mage=20; LD). In a emotion task...
Objective To analyse the relationship between health app quality with user ratings and number of downloads corresponding apps. Materials methods Utilising a dataset 881 Android-based apps, assessed via 300-point objective Organisation for Review Care Health Applications (ORCHA) assessment tool, we explored whether subjective user-level indicators (user downloads) correlate scores in domains experience, data privacy professional/clinical assurance. For this purpose, applied spearman...
Background With the increasing use of health apps and ongoing concerns regarding their safety, effectiveness, data privacy, numerous app quality assessment frameworks have emerged. However, initiatives experience difficulties scaling, there is currently no comprehensive, consistent, internationally recognized framework. Therefore, often need to undergo several evaluations enter different markets, leading duplication work. The CEN ISO/TS 82304‑2 seeks address this issue, aiming provide an...
Abstract Background Several studies have reported diminished learning from non-social outcomes in depressed individuals. However, it is not clear how depression impacts social feedback. Notably, mood disorders are commonly associated with deficits functioning, which raises the possibility that potential impairments may negatively affect real-life experiences subjects. Methods Ninety-two participants high (HD; N = 40) and low (LD; 52) scores were recruited. Subjects performed a task, during...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> The adoption of high-quality health apps has been slow, despite a myriad benefits associated with their use. This is partly due to users’ concerns regarding the effectiveness, safety, and data privacy such apps. Quality assessments robust transparent criteria can address these and, thereby, encourage utilisation However, major challenge for reaching scale at which substantial proportion over 350,000 available be evaluated. </sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> To...
The increasing global prevalence of dementia and the lack disease-modifying treatments give rise to need for early detection dementia-causing diseases enable development targeted administration preventative interventions. However, current methods that have potential diseases, such as positron emission tomography or cerebrospinal fluid sampling, are invasive costly, which constitutes a barrier large-scale assessment risk. Early Detection Neurodegenerative (EDoN) initiative was established by...

Background: Several studies have reported diminished learning from non-social outcomes in depressed individuals. However, it is not clear how depression impacts social feedback. Notably, mood disorders are commonly associated with deficits functioning, which raises the possibility that potential impairments may negatively affect real-life experiences subjects. Methods: Ninety-two participants high (HD; N=40) and low (LD; N=52) scores were recruited. Subjects performed a task, during they...
Anhedonia, a central depression symptom, is associated with impairments in reward processing. However, it not well understood which sub-components of processing (anticipation, motivation, consummation, and learning) are impaired association anhedonia depression. In particular, unclear how learning about different rewards the effort needed to obtain them might be symptoms. Therefore, we examined young people (N = 132, mean age 20, range 17-25 yrs.) symptoms using probabilistic instrumental...
Background There are more than 350,000 digital health interventions (DHIs) in the app stores. To ensure that they effective and safe to use, should be assessed for compliance with best practice standards. Objective The objective of this paper was examine compare DHIs standards adherence user experience (UX), professional clinical assurance (PCA), data privacy (DP). Methods We collected assessment from 1574 using Organisation Review Care Health Apps Baseline (OBR) tool. As part assessment,...
Background User involvement is increasingly acknowledged as a central part of health care innovation. However, meaningful user during the development and testing mobile apps often not fully realized. Objective This study aims to examine in which areas input most prevalent whether there an association between inclusion compliance with best practices for apps. Methods A secondary analysis was conducted on assessment data set 1595 The contained information had been developed or tested they...
BackgroundAnhedonia, the loss of pleasure in usually enjoyable activities, is a central feature major depressive disorder (MDD). The aim present study was to examine whether young people at familial risk depression display signs anticipatory, motivational or consummatory anhedonia, which would indicate that these deficits may be trait markers for MDD.MethodsThe completed by 22 participants with family history (FH+) and 21 controls (HC). Anticipatory anhedonia assessed asking rate their...
It has been suggested that the experience of self may be altered in depression. However, most research this area focuses on negative content depressed individuals’ self-image. We developed Multidimensional Sense Self (MSoS) scale to enable examination dissociable, valence-independent aspects which have not widely investigated The structure and validity were examined 306 participants. final MSoS consists 18 items load onto three factors: psychological sense (self-knowledge), self-focused...
Abstract Background Major depressive disorder is associated with altered social functioning and impaired learning, on both the behavioural neural level. These deficits are likely related, considering that successful interactions require learning to predict other people’s emotional responses. Yet, there little research examining this relation. Methods Forty-three individuals high (HD; N=21) low (LD; N=22) depression scores answered questions regarding their real-life experiences performed a...
