      abstract     = {Social comparison is central in human life and can be
                      especially challenging in depression and social anxiety. We
                      assessed event-related potentials and emotions when
                      receiving feedback on both their own and a co-player’s
                      performance, in participants with depression and/or social
                      anxiety (n=63) and healthy controls (n=72). Participants
                      reported more negative emotions for downward (being better
                      than someone else) and upward (being worse) comparisons vs.
                      even outcomes, with these effects being stronger in
                      depression and social anxiety. At the Medial Frontal
                      Negativity, both controls and depressed participants showed
                      enhanced negativity for upward (participant wrong, co-player
                      correct) comparison vs. both the participant and co-player
                      performing wrong. Socially anxious subjects showed the
                      opposite effect, possibly due to greater expectations about
                      being worse than others. The P300 decreased for downward and
                      upward comparisons compared to even outcomes, which may
                      relate to the higher levels of conflict of social
                      inequality. Depressed and socially anxious subjects showed a
                      blunted P300 increase over time in response to the task
                      outcomes, suggesting deficits in allocating resources for
                      the attention of incoming social information. This may
                      relate to difficulties in these disorders in learning how to
                      deal with the cognitive/emotional demands of social
                      comparison.},
