Social Learning and Preferences in Adolescents With Conduct Problems and Varying Levels of Callous-Unemotional Traits.

Objective

Learning to successfully navigate the social world, in particular when to trust others and how to work together with them, is crucial to well-adjusted social development. This is especially the case during adolescence, when individuals are undergoing significant biological and social changes.

This pattern appears to be particularly pronounced in adolescents with CP and high callous-unemotional traits (CP/HCU). However, very little is currently known about the mechanisms that might drive reduced cooperative behaviors in adolescent CP, and whether these differ for individuals with high vs low levels of CU tr
