Background: Individuals with major depressive disorder have a cognitive bias toward emotional stimuli, which influences the quality and speed of emotional information processing. This study aimed to understand the factors underlying this bias by identifying when it occurs during information processing using an information processing model.
Methods: A total of 57 participants-19 each [ (16 (84.21%) females and 3 (15.79%) males per group)], for the first-episode MDD (FMDD), recurrent episodes MDD (RMDD), and healthy controls (HCs) - matched for sex and hand preference, completed event-related potentials (ERP) to perform psychological function and a choice response time task.
Results: Results revealed that recurrent episodes major depressive disorder participants had decreased N2b and P3b amplitudes but increased contingent negative variation during the processing of happy and neutral facial stimuli, relative to their counterparts. Both recurrent episodes major depressive disorder and first-episode major depressive disorder participants used a parallel information processing strategy for happy information at P3a latency, while healthy controls used a linear information processing strategy.
Conclusion: The use of a parallel processing strategy among individuals with major depressive disorder may have led to impaired "happy" information processes, possibly explaining why individuals with major depressive disorder are less efficient than healthy controls. The results suggest the possibility that biases related to the processing of "happy" information among individuals with major depressive disorder may be related to a tendency for these individuals to engage in superficial decision-making. Future research is needed to examine the processes contributing to people with major depressive disorder having challenges with inhibition-facilitation of emotional stimuli.

narrative. The overall theme of Michel Laub’s “Diary of the Fall” is the interconnectedness of the individual and social experiences of calamity and dementia in memory, struggle to remember and forget, as well as the fragility of the person and the planet. Ultimately, “Diary of the Fall” is a moving and introspective book that examines the themes of guilt, identity, and the fragility of relationships through the prism of one man’s quest to comprehend his history and accept his part in the events that occurred.

Introduction In China, approximately 85% of people with dementia are cared for by family carers. However, limited research has been conducted to examine family carers’ expectations regarding what they perceive is required for optimal care. Therefore, this study aimed to explore family carers’ expectations regarding dementia care support and services in China. Methods A qualitative study employing semi-structured interviews, with data collected from three public tertiary hospitals where the primary family carers of people with dementia (N = 21) were recruited from May to December 2019. Purposive maximum variation sampling was used to recruit participants. Data was interpreted both inductively and deductively using thematic analysis. Findings Four themes were identified. The family carers reported minimal support regarding dementia care, and they held little hope of receiving support. However, most carers expressed their limited expectations, such as financial support from the government and respite care services from the community. Carers believed that care was their duty, and some of them were unwilling to move their relative with dementia into a nursing home. Conclusion Health and the three-tier long-term care systems in China are inadequately prepared for the challenges of dementia care, suggesting the need to develop health and social services and improve support for family carers to enable improved care for people with dementia.

Background and Purpose While the marital relationship with partners with dementia has an impact on spousal carers’ well-being, the spousal understandings or expectations of their marital relationship have not been fully identified. As the marital relationship is formed by individual backgrounds including society, culture and psychological status, the aim of this study was to identify the experience of being the spouse of a person with dementia in the context of their marital relationship. The study was conducted in Japan. Research Design To identify spousal experience of being, Heideggerian perspectives of interpretive phenomenology were applied. Study Sample Seven couples aged over 65 years, each comprising one partner with dementia who received home nursing, and their spouse participated in this study. Data Collection The couples were observed, and semi-structured interviews were conducted. Data Analysis Interpretive data analysis based on the Hermeneutic circle of Heideggerian perspectives was applied. Results In the findings, the experience of being a spouse, contextualised by spousal understandings of marital relationship, was formed through seven themes. The main context for spousal understanding of their marital relationship was helping each other as husband and wife, and this relationship was seen as natural and unchanging. It reflected on spousal potentiality of being, that is, living together indefinitely as before. Spouses tried to provide suitable care for their partners using memories while preserving a sense of identity, maintaining external relationships and accepting unanticipated internal responsibility. Conclusions In conclusion, fulfilling unmet needs could help spouses to ease intense care load, which re-acknowledges their own and their partner’s identity, and their relationship by reminiscing their past.
