The main purpose of the present work was to study the neurocognitive endophenotypes of adolescents at risk for low personal wellbeing. The sample included a total of 1588 adolescents from stratified random cluster sampling; derived from this sample, a group of high-risk ( = 84) and a control group ( = 84) were selected. The personal well-being index-school children (PWI-SC), the University of Pennsylvania computerized neuropsychological test battery for children (included 14 tasks assessing five neurobehavioral domains: executive functions, episodic memory, complex cognition, social cognition and sensorimotor speed), and the strengths and difficulties questionnaire (SDQ) were used. Adolescents with low personal wellbeing showed statistically significant impairments across the different neurocognitive domains. In particular, adolescents at risk showed lower accuracy scores on executive function and complex cognition and lower speed scores on episodic memory, complex cognition and social cognition scores. The results of the present study contribute relevant information about the nature of neurocognitive impairments associated with subjective wellbeing and allow implementing preventive treatments.
本研究旨在探讨有低个人幸福感风险的青少年的神经认知内表型。该研究的样本包括了总计 1588 名来自分层随机聚类抽样的青少年；在此基础上，选取了一个高风险组（n=84）和对照组（n=84）。研究使用了个人幸福感指数-儿童版（PWI-SC）、宾夕法尼亚大学儿童计算机神经心理测试包（包括 14 项任务，评估 5 个神经行为领域：执行功能、情景记忆、复杂认知、社会认知和感觉运动速度）和长处和困难问卷（SDQ）。有低个人幸福感的青少年在不同的神经认知领域表现出显著的损伤。特别是，有风险的青少年在执行功能和复杂认知方面的准确性得分较低，在情景记忆、复杂认知和社会认知方面的速度得分也较低。本研究的结果提供了与主观幸福感相关的神经认知损伤性质的相关信息，并为实施预防治疗提供了依据。
