Abstract
To examine whether need for approval (NFA) and antisocial behavior (ASB) moderate the effects of socioemotional stimuli on cognitive control, 88 girls (Mage = 16.31 years; SD=0.84; 65.9% White) completed a socioemotional Go/No-go and questionnaires. At high approach NFA, girls responded more slowly during appetitive than control (b= -8.80, p< .01) and aversive (b= -5.58, p= .01) trials. At high ASB, girls responded more slowly (b= -6.12, p= .02) and less accurately (OR=1.11, p= .03) during appetitive than aversive trials; at low ASB, girls responded more slowly during aversive than control trials (b= -4.42, p= .04). Thus, both context and individual differences influence adolescents' cognitive control.
