Summary

Social interactions are part of daily life. To decide to interact with someone or not is a routine for humans. To ensure the quality of interpersonal relationships, emotional cues must be taken into account to adapt optimally the investigator's behavior.

Difficulties in interpersonal relationships often trigger suicidal behavior. Suicide attempters are characterized by an impaired decision - making associated with difficulties in familial relationships.

To date, little data on emotional recognition and social decision- making in clinical population is available.

The study aims to compare behavioral response to negative social cues in 82 depressed patients according to their history of suicide attempt using a computerized neuropsychological task.

Waiting room task

The waiting room task consists in a computerized neuropsychological task in which the participant is asked to freely choose a chair to sit in a waiting room. In a row of four chairs, the two in the middle are occupied by two males or females. One of the two subjects sitting either has a neutral face, or express a negative emotion (fear or anger). To make their decision, participants must press the "S" keyboard button to go left or the "L" keyboard button to go right in a time limit of 1500 milliseconds. One third of the time, the cursor moves in the opposite direction to that requested by the participant. For example, if the subject presses "S", the cursor moves to the right instead of to the left. Those reverse trials are used to evaluate their motivation to correct the movement of the cursor. The participant will repeat the task 360 times for the assessment to be completed.
