Abstract

Growing up in neglectful households can impact multiple aspects of social cognition. However, research on neglect's effects on social cognition processes and their neuroanatomical correlates during adolescence is scarce. Here, we aimed to comprehensively assess social cognition processes (recognition of basic and contextual emotions, theory of mind, the experience of envy and Schadenfreude and empathy for pain) and their structural brain correlates in adolescents with legal neglect records within family-based care. First, we compared neglected adolescents (n = 27) with control participants (n = 25) on context-sensitive social cognition tasks while controlling for physical and emotional abuse and executive and intellectual functioning. Additionally, we explored the grey matter correlates of these domains through voxel-based morphometry. Compared to controls, neglected adolescents exhibited lower performance in contextual emotional recognition and theory of mind, higher levels of envy and Schadenfreude and diminished empathy. Physical and emotional abuse and executive or intellectual functioning did not explain these effects. Moreover, social cognition scores correlated with brain volumes in regions subserving social cognition and emotional processing. Our results underscore the potential impact of neglect on different aspects of social cognition during adolescence, emphasizing the necessity for preventive and intervention strategies to address these deficits in this population.

被忽视青少年社会认知的神经解剖标记
在被忽视的家庭中成长会对社会认知的多个方面产生影响。然而,有关青少年时期忽视对社会认知过程及其神经解剖相关性的影响的研究却很少。在此,我们旨在全面评估在家庭式照料中有合法忽视记录的青少年的社会认知过程(基本情绪和情境情绪的识别、心智理论、嫉妒和幸灾乐祸的体验以及对疼痛的同理心)及其大脑结构相关性。首先,我们比较了被忽视青少年(n = 27)和对照组参与者(n = 25)在情境敏感社会认知任务上的表现,同时控制了身体和情感虐待以及执行和智力功能。此外,我们还通过体素形态计量学探讨了这些领域的灰质相关性。与对照组相比,被忽视的青少年在情境情感识别和心智理论方面表现较差,嫉妒和幸灾乐祸程度较高,移情能力较弱。身体和情感虐待以及执行或智力功能并不能解释这些影响。此外,社会认知得分与社会认知和情绪处理区域的脑容量相关。我们的研究结果凸显了青少年时期忽视对社会认知不同方面的潜在影响,强调有必要采取预防和干预策略来解决这一人群的这些缺陷。

期刊介绍: Neurobiology of Stress is a multidisciplinary journal for the publication of original research and review articles on basic, translational and clinical research into stress and related disorders. It will focus on the impact of stress on the brain from cellular to behavioral functions and stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders (such as depression, trauma and anxiety). The translation of basic research findings into real-world applications will be a key aim of the journal. Basic, translational and clinical research on the following topics as they relate to stress will be covered: Molecular substrates and cell signaling, Genetics and epigenetics, Stress circuitry, Structural and physiological plasticity, Developmental Aspects, Laboratory models of stress, Neuroinflammation and pathology, Memory and Cognition, Motivational Processes, Fear and Anxiety, Stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders (including depression, PTSD, substance abuse), Neuropsychopharmacology.
