Momentary mood ratings are correlated with initial depressive symptoms. (A) In an example participant with the initial depression (PHQ-9) score of 22, a computational model of momentary mood accounted for subjective momentary mood ratings from the decision-making task. (B) Baseline mood parameters were negatively correlated with initial depressive symptoms (PHQ-9, ρ = −0.34, P < 0.001), replicating previous findings (31, 40). Error bars indicate the SEM. Study 1 and 2 datasets were combined for this analysis.
