Affect and the Functional Bases of Behavior: On the Dimensional Structure of Affective Experience (2001, background): “Together, the findings suggest that clinical depression relates to low engagement of the approach system, rather than to the functioning of the avoidance system (see also Henriques & Davidson, 2000).”
A meta-analysis of emotional reactivity in major depressive disorder. (2008, neutral): “…(e.g., Cacioppo, Martzke, Petty, & Tassinary, 1988; Cacioppo, Petty, Losch, & Kim, 1986; Lang et al., 1993), emotionmodulated eyeblink/startle responses (e.g., Bradley, Cuthbert, & Lang, 1999; Bradley & Lang, 2000), and approach/ avoidance behavior (e.g., Carver, 2001; Henriques & Davidson, 2000).”
Emotion context insensitivity in major depressive disorder. (2005, background): “…individuals have been found to exhibit less positive emotion— expressive behavior in response to pleasant film and drink stimuli (Berenbaum & Oltmanns, 1992) and pleasant slides (Sloan et al., 2001) and to be less behaviorally responsive to reward contingencies (Henriques & Davidson, 2000).”
Interactions between emotion regulation strategies and affective style: Implications for trait anxiety versus depressed mood (2007, background): “Indeed, low positive emotion and reduced reward responsiveness rather than the presence of negative emotionality might be a specific risk factor for clinical depression ( Henriques and Davidson 2000; Shankman et al. 2005).”
Social functioning in major depressive disorder. (2016, neutral): “Alternatively, anhedonia might lead to attenuated responses to monetary gains and blunted reward responsiveness (Henriques and Davidson, 2000).”
Toward an objective characterization of an anhedonic phenotype: a signal-detection approach. (2005, background): “Considering the importance of anhedonia and abnormal approach-related behavior in depression, it is surprising to note that a paucity of studies has employed laboratory-based measures to objectively characterize these constructs (e.g. Buchwald 1977; Henriques and Davidson 2000).”
