Abstract
Elevated depressive symptoms are common in individuals with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), but it is unclear how this co-morbidity may influence the processing of positive emotional stimuli.

We hypothesized that higher depressive symptoms would be associated with reduced activation within the insular cortex, in response to masked happy faces.
