Summary: Social interactions involve a complex interplay between social perceptual biases and higher-level cognition and affect, with attention to others' eyes being a crucial aspect. Previous research has found a positive relationship between eye-looking and empathy, but manipulating one behavior does not seem to lead to changes in the other. This suggests that the relationship between visual attention and social cognition is intricate and challenging to modify.

Summary: Deficiencies in Theory of Mind (ToM) are commonly found in individuals with schizophrenia (SZ), major depressive disorder (MDD), and bipolar disorder (BD), with severity increasing along the affective-psychotic spectrum. ToM deficits appear to be part of a broader developmental phenotype associated with SZ and BD.

Summary: EmpaToM is a validated social video task designed for independent manipulation and assessment of empathy and Theory of Mind. Studies have shown that empathy and Theory of Mind are dissociable constructs in adults. A new version, EmpaToM-Y, has been specifically designed for measuring these capacities in youths.

Summary: The study found that observers experienced higher levels of personal distress when facing distressing situations with a partner, especially highly empathetic individuals were more prone to such distress. Engaging in social emotion regulation reduced personal distress in observers at a similar rate as self emotion regulation. FMRI analyses revealed increased brain activation for regulating others' emotions in regions associated with social cognition, which was also linked to lower self-reported stress and decreased physical stress responses. This study highlights the benefits of actively regulating another person's emotions for reducing one's own distress, with the precuneus identified as a crucial node for social emotion regulation.

Summary: Social interactions are crucial for human development, yet there is limited understanding of their underlying neurocognitive mechanisms. This study used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the brain response during social interactions in children. The results showed similar neural patterns in the temporal poles during mentalizing and peer interactions, suggesting a neurocognitive link between the two. However, other social brain regions exhibited different responses to interactive peers and abstract characters. These findings highlight the importance of studying social-cognitive processes using interactive paradigms.

Summary: The study found that interpretation bias training may help improve depressed mood and social functioning in individuals with bipolar disorder. Participants who underwent IBT experienced shifts in emotion interpretation, decreased depressed mood, and increased perceived familial support. These results suggest that IBT could be a beneficial and easily disseminated intervention for individuals with bipolar disorder.

Summary: Recordings of interracial police officer-civilian interactions are now widely available and individuals may be more inclined to understand these dynamics when perceiving injustice towards communities that experience disproportionate policing. Two studies were conducted to explore this issue. The fMRI study found that White participants showed greater neural activity in regions supporting social cognition when viewing videos of Black civilians involved in more aggressive police encounters. Additionally, participants in the fMRI study rated officers as more aggressive and their use of force as less legitimate when the civilian was Black. In study 2, participants who had not viewed the videos also reported a belief that police are generally more unjustly aggressive towards Black civilians compared to White civilians. These findings shed light on how perceptions of conflict and injustice influence social cognitive engagement when observing arrests by White police officers of Black and White individuals.

Summary: This study found that the imbalance between emotional empathy and cognitive empathy is related to clinical features. Higher emotional empathy relative to cognitive empathy is related to the social domain of autism, anxiety symptoms, and emotional reactivity. On the other hand, higher cognitive empathy relative to emotional empathy is related to the non-social domain of autism, depression symptoms, and psychopathic tendencies.

Summary: Empathy is crucial in our social-emotional experience, and there has been growing interest in the effects of acute stress on empathy. This review provides a comprehensive overview of emerging patterns and gaps in the literature. It shows that acute stress can lead to stress contagion in affective empathy, but the effects vary depending on contextual factors. It also finds that acute stress may differentially affect cognitive empathy for men and women, especially in more complex empathy tasks.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of perceived social exclusion without accompanying cortisol increase on empathy in women with BPD and healthy women. The findings showed that women with BPD reported lower emotional empathy for positive emotions, but not for negative emotions. Additionally, emotional empathy in women with BPD seems to be more sensitive to the effects of stress or ambiguous social situations.

Summary: This study found that executive dysfunction in youth with BD and BD-OFF positively correlated with levels of verbal aggression, while altered affective processing in youth with BD positively correlated with aggression but negatively correlated in BD-OFF. This suggests that impulsive aggressive behaviors in youth with BD arise from a combination of altered affective processing and executive dysfunction, while BD-OFF may have mechanisms of resilience.

Summary: The study found that Psychotic Like Experiences (PLEs) in adolescents are associated with changes in cortical gyrification, indicating abnormal neurodevelopment. Adolescents with higher PLEs had lower cortical gyrification in the fronto-temporal regions in the left hemisphere, and higher cortical gyrification in the right parietal cortex during late adolescence. The study also revealed that adolescents with high PLEs were 5.6 times more likely to develop psychosis by age 23.

Summary: The aim of this study was to examine the impact of the early COVID-19 pandemic on cannabis use. The results showed that the frequency of cannabis intake remained relatively stable during the early phase of the pandemic. Increased cannabis consumption quantities were associated with corona-related concerns and positive effects during the pandemic, while reasons for consumption decreased, except for boredom. Thus, the use of cannabis as a coping strategy should receive special attention in clinical contexts.

Summary: This study aims to examine the dynamic associations between distal and proximal risk factors (personality traits, life stressors, and drinking motives) and their relationship with alcohol use in adolescence and early adulthood. The findings suggest that heavy and frequent alcohol use, along with social drinking motives, are key targets for preventing alcohol-related problems during late adolescence. However, there was no evidence found for personality traits and life stressors predisposing towards distinct drinking motives over time.

Summary: This study compared the effectiveness of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Second-Generation Antipsychotics (SGAs) as the first-line treatments for individuals at clinical high risk for psychosis (CHRp). The results showed that neither CBT nor SGAs had significant advantages over the placebo in preventing the transition to psychosis. Therefore, low-dose aripiprazole and CBT did not offer additional benefits over clinical management and placebo.

Summary: This study aimed to replicate previous findings of mentalizing impairment and altered neural responses in schizophrenia, and to investigate its association with domain-general cognitive impairment. The results showed no significant group differences in mentalizing network activation between schizophrenia patients and healthy controls. Verbal intelligence was found to be positively associated with activation of the medial prefrontal cortex, a key region of the mentalizing network. This suggests that verbal intelligence is an important confounding variable in group comparisons and should be considered in future studies on the neural correlates of mentalizing dysfunction in schizophrenia.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between cognitive abilities, cortical thickness, and genetic variations related to neuronal plasticity in adolescent brains. The results suggest that these genetic variations play a role in the brain-behavior relationship and may contribute to inter-individual variations in cortical thickness related to cognitive abilities, especially in male adolescents. However, the findings were not replicated in female adolescents.
