Regional gray matter volume mediates the relationship between neuroticism and depressed emotion
The underlying psychological mechanism of the effect of neuroticism on depressed emotion has been widely studied. However, the neural mechanism of this relationship remains unclear. Therefore, the present study aimed to apply voxel-based morphometry (VBM)

Hidden scars in depression? Implicit and explicit self-associations following recurrent depressive episodes [PDF]
To help explain the recurrent nature of major depressive disorder, we tested the hypothesis that depressive episodes and/or the duration of depressive symptoms may give rise to persistent dysfunctional implicit and/or more explicit self-associations ...
