Overview

Longitudinal study examines how theta oscillations moderate psychological outcomes in adolescents, suggesting new resilience markers.

Key Points

  • This study aims to explore how error-related neural markers influence psychological responses to war exposure in adolescents.
  • Fifty adolescents aged 12–17 completed a flanker task with EEG recordings before the outbreak of war.
  • One year later, 30 participants assessed anxiety, perceived stress, and avoidant coping during armed conflict.
  • Higher levels of induced theta oscillations amplified the link between war exposure and perceived stress.
  • No increased mean anxiety levels were observed overall, reflecting the varied responses in adolescents.
  • Error-related negativity (ERN) did not predict stress outcomes during prolonged war conditions.
