Summary of reward processing-related functional connectivity results following childhood poverty, maltreatment, and institutional care.
ELS Type | Reference | N | Finding |
---|---|---|---|
Poverty | (Marshall et al., 2018) | 100 | Low household income associated with increased ventral striatum – lateral PFC connectivity |
Maltreatment | (Marusak, Etkin, et al., 2015) | 43 | Increased salience network – insula and salience network – amygdala connectivity in trauma exposed youth compared to no trauma |
(Marusak, Hatfield, et al., 2017) | 86 | Decreased VTA – hippocampus connectivity and increased SN – hippocampus connectivity in maltreated individuals | |
Institutional Care | (Fareri et al., 2017) | 88 | Positive ventral striatum – mPFC connectivity in post-institutionalized youth compared to negative ventral striatum – mPFC connectivity in comparison group |
