From: Brain mediators of biased social learning of self-perception in social anxiety disorder
A Beta weights (reflecting degree of learning from social feedback) for positive and negative feedback mismatch (ΔEval) in HC and SAD. Differences between positive and negative learning (‘social influence bias’) are shown in violin plots on the right (each dot reflects the value for one participant). Participants in the SAD group had significantly more negatively biased learning than those in the HC group. B Model-based prior value and learning rates for affective updating in HC and SAD. SAD showed significantly lower prior self-esteem than controls. Whereas HC showed a bias towards more positive affective updating, SAD participants had a more negative affective updating bias. Relative to HCs, their state self-esteem was more updated towards negative versus positive social feedback. Bars show group means and vertical lines indicate SEM.
