Neural vulnerability to stress in adolescents: a longitudinal study using polyconnectomic scoring of depression risk
Higher PCS-MDD is associated with greater variability in stress-related emotional outcomes during adolescence. These results suggest that neural vulnerability may moderate the emotional correlates of stress and underscore the potential relevance of personalized interventions targeting stress regulation in youth with elevated vulnerability profiles.
