These findings provide support for the idea that ELA leads to hypersensitivity to potential threat and suggest that interventions that target responses to ambiguity may be particularly powerful in mitigating the effects of adverse early experiences. (7/7)

A new study from our lab led by Natalie Saragosa-Harris is available (open access) this week! 📷 (1/7)https://t.co/qlwaCgVUyz

[SAND Lab @sandlabucla]

Notably, rather than a general effect in which individuals with a history of ELA exhibited general impairments in differentiating among affective cues, we found that ELA specifically related to attenuated differentiation between ambiguity and threat. (5/7)

[SAND Lab @sandlabucla]

We also found that individual differences in behavioral responses to ambiguity related to mental health, and that this association varied as a function of ELA history. (6/7)

Getting another person’s perspective can help when we’re trying to reframe negative events. But does the perspective they offer “stick” to help us confront the same situations again on our own? New work out now with @sandlabucla suggests yes! 1/n https://t.co/qe7L7IWWV5

We had a great time last week in our journal club meeting discussing the paper, "Oxytocin neurons enable social transmission of maternal behaviour"! It was some of our RA's first exposure to rodent models and fascinating to see! 🐀 https://t.co/X5UGFyEX2D
