Text

The final sample of the present study included 820 participants who had reward-related VS reactivity data available after data-quality screening. Participants were excluded for the following reasons: incidental structural brain abnormalities (n = 4), significant movement outliers in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data (n = 38; see preprocessing description below), scanner artifacts in fMRI data (n = 6), technical difficulties during fMRI data collection (e.g. coil problems; n = 3), incomplete data collection (e.g. subject fell asleep; n = 9), or poor behavioral performance (i.e. less than 60% appropriate feedback during VS reactivity task; n = 25). One additional participant was excluded from analyses because they did not complete the scale used to assess ELS (Childhood Trauma Questionnaire; n = 1). A total of 86 (9.49%) participants were excluded after fMRI data-quality screening and availability of all self-report questionnaires was taken into account.
