目前的研究检测了抑郁母亲和非抑郁母亲的孩子在检测情绪面孔方面的敏感性。第二个目标是研究催产素受体基因(OXTRrs53576)的潜在调节作用，该基因在过去被认为与情绪识别有关。参与者包括247名儿童(8-14岁)。儿童完成了一项强迫选择的情绪识别任务。在OXTRrs53576G等位基因纯合子儿童中，母亲的MDD病史与儿童对情绪面孔的敏感度相关，而在A等位基因携带者中则不相关。在G纯合子中，与非抑郁母亲的孩子相比，抑郁母亲的孩子在识别悲伤面孔时表现出更高的敏感度，而在检测快乐时则表现出更低的敏感度。
The current study examined sensitivity in detecting emotional faces among children of depressed and nondepressed mothers. A second goal was to examine the potential moderating role of the oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR rs53576), which has been linked to emotion recognition in the past. Participants included 247 children (ages 8-14). Children completed a forced choice emotion identification task. Maternal history of MDD during children’s lives was associated with children’s sensitivity in detecting emotional faces among children homozygous for the OXTR rs53576 G allele, but not among carriers of the A allele. Among G homozygotes, children of depressed mothers exhibited increased sensitivity in detecting sad faces, and reduced sensitivity in detecting happiness, compared to children of nondepressed mothers.
