Internal Consistency of Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Electroencephalography Measures of Reward in Late Childhood and Early Adolescence.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Abnormal neural response to reward is increasingly thought to function as a biological correlate of emerging psychopathology during adolescence. However, this view assumes such responses have good psychometric properties-especially internal consistency-an assumption that is rarely tested.

Methods

Internal consistency (i.e., spilt-half reliability) was calculated for event-related potentials (ERPs) and Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) responses to monetary gain and loss feedback from the same sample of 8-14 year-old females (n=177). Internal consistency for ERPs (i.e. feedback negativity) and BOLD responses within the ventral striatum and medial/lateral prefrontal cortex to gain, loss, difference scores (gain-loss), and residual scores (gain controlling for loss
