Abstract

The present study is the first to test the relations between Sluggish Cognitive Tempo (SCT) symptomatology and positive emotional functioning while controlling for co-occurring psychopathologies. Over and above depression and ADHD, SCT symptoms were uniquely associated with greater valuation and expectancy of reward, but less willingness to work for reward.
