We are happy to share that a new paper is out! Congratulations!

 Kai Härper and Hannes Per Carsten summarize their results as follows: „In our freshly published paper we investigated the effects of trait and state worry on the ERN. We found an association of trait worry with larger ERN amplitudes only in females but that the ERN was not modulated by state worry interventions. In line with previos research, participants with a lifetime diagnosis of an internalizing disorders showed larger ERN amplitudes. Taken together, our data suggest that ERN is insensitive to state worry variations and is more of a trait-like neural risk marker or endophenotype“
