Children with conduct problems (CP) persistently violate others' rights and represent a considerable societal cost [1]. These children also display atypical empathic responses to others' distress [2], which may partly account for their violent and antisocial behavior. Callous traits index lack of empathy in these children and confer risk for adult psychopathy [3]. Investigating neural responses to others' pain is an ecologically valid method to probe empathic processing [4], but studies in children with CP have been inconclusive [5, 6]. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we measured neural responses to pictures of others in pain (versus no pain) in a large sample of children with CP and matched controls. Relative to controls, children with CP showed reduced blood oxygen level-dependent responses to others' pain in bilateral anterior insula (Al), anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), and inferior frontal gyrus, regions associated with empathy for pain in previous studies [7, 8]. In the CP group, callous traits were negatively associated with responses to others' pain in Al and ACC. We conclude that children with CP have atypical neural responses to others' pain. The negative association between callous traits and Al/ACC response could reflect an early neurobiological marker indexing risk for empathic deficits seen in adult psychopathy.

Child Maltreatment, Peer Victimization, and Mental Health: Neurocognitive Perspectives on the Cycle of Victimization

Anouk Goemans, Essi Viding, Eamon McCrory

Summary: Children who experience maltreatment are more likely to be victimized by their peers, and this has additive effects on their mental health outcomes. Evidence suggests that altered neurocognitive functioning following maltreatment may contribute to increased vulnerability to peer victimization. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for providing effective support and prevention of peer victimization.

Invasive Computational Psychiatry

Ignacio Saez, Xiaosi Gu

Summary: Computational psychiatry, a field that combines formal theories about the brain and psychiatric disorders, has grown significantly in the past decade. However, progress in this field seems slow. In contrast, invasive neuroscience techniques have greatly advanced understanding of the human brain. This review proposes the combination of computational psychiatry and invasive electrophysiology, known as invasive computational psychiatry, with its value lying in advancing our understanding of neural computations and providing causal and therapeutic insights.

Explaining the influence of non-shared environment (NSE) on symptoms of behaviour problems from preschool to adulthood: mind the missing NSE gap

Agnieszka Gidziela, Margherita Malanchini, Kaili Rimfeld, Andrew McMillan, Angelica Ronald, Essi Viding, Alison Pike, Kathryn Asbury, Thalia C. Eley, Sophie von Stumm, Robert Plomin

Summary: Individual differences in symptoms of behavior problems in childhood and adolescence are primarily due to non-shared environment (NSE), and few specific environmental factors have been found to account for these differences. Home and classroom environments are more likely to influence behavior problem symptoms via genetics than via NSE.

Age Differences in Prosocial Behavior Depend on Effort Costs

Kaileigh A. Byrne, Patricia L. Lockwood, Reza Ghaiumy Anaraky, Yizhou Liu

Summary: This study investigated age differences in willingness to engage in effortful and effortless prosocial behavior. It found that older adults were more prosocial than younger adults when the prosocial activities were effortless, but less prosocial when the activities required effort. This suggests that older adults have a higher willingness to engage in prosocial behavior, but physical resource constraints may limit their ability to participate in effortful prosocial activities.

The computational psychiatry of antisocial behaviour and psychopathy

Ruth Pauli, Patricia L. Lockwood

Summary: Antisocial behaviors, such as disobedience, lying, stealing, destruction of property, and aggression, are shared features of various disorders in both childhood and adulthood, including conduct disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, psychopathy, and antisocial personality disorder. The debate whether these disorders represent distinct clinical phenomena or different approaches to diagnosing the same underlying psychopathology remains ongoing. Computational psychiatry, with its focus on data-driven and theory-driven approaches, is well-suited to address these questions and provide advances in understanding the mechanisms underlying different antisocial behavior disorders. This review critically discusses the contribution of computational research to our understanding of these disorders and proposes ways in which computational psychiatry can further explore important clinical and scientific questions related to antisocial behaviors.

Testing the Ecophenotype Model: Cortical Structure Alterations in Conduct Disorder With Versus Without Childhood Maltreatment

Marlene Staginnus, Harriet Cornwell, Nicola Toschi, Maaike Oosterling, Michal Paradysz, Areti Smaragdi, Karen Gonzalez-Madruga, Ruth Pauli, Jack C. Rogers, Anka Bernhard, Anne Martinelli, Gregor Kohls, Nora Maria Raschle, Kerstin Konrad, Christina Stadler, Christine M. Freitag, Stephane A. De Brito, Graeme Fairchild

Summary: This study investigated the neuroanatomical alterations in youths with conduct disorder (CD) and their history of maltreatment. It found that CD patients had lower cortical thickness, while those with maltreatment history showed more widespread structural alterations in frontal regions. This highlights the importance of considering maltreatment history in imaging studies of CD.

Neural representations of vicarious rewards are linked to interoception and prosocial behaviour

Luis Sebastian Contreras-Huerta, Michel-Pierre Coll, Geoffrey Bird, Hongbo Yu, Annayah Prosser, Patricia L. Lockwood, Jennifer Murphy, M. J. Crockett, Matthew A. J. Apps

Summary: This study demonstrates that the anterior cingulate gyrus (ACCg) is predictive of prosocial behavior, while the anterior insula (AI) is linked to interoceptive propensity. The findings suggest that variability in the processing of rewards in the ACCg and AI can predict an individual's willingness to be prosocial and their awareness of interoceptive signals.

L-DOPA and oxytocin influence the neurocomputational mechanisms of self-benefitting and prosocial reinforcement learning

Myrthe Jansen, Patricia L. Lockwood, Jo Cutler, Ellen R. A. de Bruijn

Summary: Recent research suggests that reinforcement mechanisms drive prosocial learning, but the neurochemical mechanisms underlying this process are poorly understood. This study examined the effects of oxytocin and dopamine on the neural computational mechanisms of self-benefitting and prosocial reinforcement learning. The results showed that both oxytocin and dopamine influenced reward signals and neural activity related to reinforcement learning, and oxytocin had opposing effects on self-benefitting and prosocial reward signals.

Neural activity tracking identity and confidence in social information

Nadescha Trudel, Patricia L. Lockwood, Matthew F. S. Rushworth, Marco K. Wittmann

Summary: Humans learn about the environment through direct interaction or seeking information from social sources. This study examined the differences in behavioral and neural computations during non-social learning and learning from social sources. Confidence judgments revealed that judgments about social information were more accurate and stable compared to non-social information. Neural activity in specific brain areas also differed between social and non-social information processing.

Longing to act: Bayesian inference as a framework for craving in behavioral addiction

Kaustubh R. Kulkarni, Madeline O'Brien, Xiaosi Gu

Summary: Traditionally, craving has been considered a defining feature of drug addiction, but recent evidence suggests it can also exist in behavioral addictions. The extent to which the mechanisms of craving overlap between substance use disorders and behavioral addictions is unclear, so there is a need to develop a comprehensive theory that integrates findings from both. This review proposes a computational theory for craving in behavioral addiction, based on the Bayesian brain hypothesis and interoceptive inference.

Understanding patch foraging strategies across development

Alex Lloyd, Essi Viding, Ryan Mckay, Nicholas Furl

Summary: Patch foraging is a common behavior that has a significant impact on human decision-making. The disposition to explore in adolescence may be related to the evolutionary conditions of resource foraging among hunter-gatherers. Neurocomputational mechanisms play a crucial role in the transition from exploratory strategies to exploitative strategies, and psychopathology can disrupt this developmental transition. Explore/exploit choices may serve as an important marker for mental health and should be considered as a target for clinical intervention.

Action initiation and punishment learning differ from childhood to adolescence while reward learning remains stable

Ruth Pauli, Inti A. Brazil, Gregor Kohls, Miriam C. Klein-Flugge, Jack C. Rogers, Dimitris Dikeos, Roberta Dochnal, Graeme Fairchild, Aranzazu Fernandez-Rivas, Beate Herpertz-Dahlmann, Amaia Hervas, Kerstin Konrad, Arne Popma, Christina Stadler, Christine M. Freitag, Stephane A. De Brito, Patricia L. Lockwood

Summary: Theoretical and empirical research suggests that adolescence is associated with enhanced reward learning and impulsivity. Using computational modeling on a large sample of 742 participants aged 9-18 from 11 countries, the authors find that reward learning remains stable during adolescence while punishment learning increases and action initiation decreases with age. These results indicate that heightened reward responsivity in adolescence may reflect differences in action initiation rather than enhanced reward learning.

Normative Processing Needs Multiple Levels of Explanation: From Algorithm to Implementation

Todd Vogel, Patricia L. Lockwood

Summary: Norms are social rules that determine what is allowed or forbidden. The debate in norm psychology focuses on whether these rules come from specific, genetically inherited mechanisms or more general mechanisms that apply to various nonnorm processes. Assessing and testing these domain-specific and domain-general processes at different levels of explanation is important. Cognitive neuroscience research provides evidence that social and nonsocial learning can be separated at different levels. This multilevel framework allows for the evaluation of cultural evolution theories about norm processing against specific genetic alternatives.

Summary: There is growing evidence that resilience in youth has a neurobiological basis. This study used data-driven resilience scores based on adversity and psychopathology to investigate associations between resilience and brain structure in youth. The findings suggest that resilience is associated with brain regions involved in executive functioning, emotion regulation, and attention.
