Perturbation of the Treatment of Resistant Depression Connectome by Fast-Acting Therapies (PDC)

Task Protocols for Treatment-Resistant Depression Connectome

CARIT (Conditioned Go/NoGo) Task

The CARIT (Conditioned Approach Response Inhibition Task, a Go/NoGo task without a reward history component) task is exactly the same as used in the Lifespan Aging and Development projects:

Modulation of inhibitory control networks relate to clinical response following ketamine therapy in major depression. TranslPsychiatry. 2020 Jul 30;10(1):260. doi: 10.1038/s41398-020-00947-7.

Face-Matching Task

The Face-Matching task we are using is a variation of the Emotion Recognition task used in the Young Adult HCP that was modified and shared as the Emotion Processing task by the BANDA project, another CRHD.

The conditions for the Face-Matching task are as follows:

Cond 1 = fearful faces
Cond 2 = happy
Cond 3 = neutral
Cond 4 = objects
