Abstract

This study will examine relationships between cognitive biases (i.e., fear of happiness and anhedonia) and working memory performance. We predict higher reported levels of fear of happiness and anhedonia will be associated with lower accuracy for positive stimuli. Results may offer insight into how cognitive factors impact working memory performance.
