Adaptive emotion regulation (ER) is essential for mental health. Reappraisal and acceptance are effective ER strategies that form the basis of therapeutic interventions, yet their common and distinct neural signatures - and the translational potential of these signatures - remain unclear. Here, we combined naturalistic fMRI with multivariate predictive modeling to develop neurofunctional signatures that accurately…

Cognitive enhancement therapy (CET) may address these problems by enhancing prefrontal brain function. A small sample of outpatients with schizophrenia and alcohol and/or cannabis substance use problems participating in an 18-month randomized trial of CET (n = 10) or usual care (n = 4) completed posttreatment…
