Depression is theorized to be caused in part by biased cognitive processing of emotional information. Yet, prior research has adopted a reductionist approach that does not characterize how biases in cognitive processes such as attention and memory work together to confer risk for this complex multifactorial disorder. Grounded in affective and cognitive science, we highlight four mechanisms to understand how attention biases, working memory difficulties, and long-term memory biases interact and contribute to depression. We review evidence for each mechanism and highlight time- and context-dependent dynamics. We outline methodological considerations and recommendations for research in this area. We conclude with directions to advance the understanding of depression risk, cognitive training interventions, and transdiagnostic properties of cognitive biases and their interactions.

映射抑郁症认知偏差之间的动态相互作用

从理论上讲，抑郁是由情绪信息的认知加工偏见引起的。但是，先前的研究已经采用了一种简化论的方法，该方法并未描述认知过程中的偏见（例如注意力和记忆力）如何共同为这种复杂的多因素障碍带来风险。基于情感和认知科学，我们重点介绍了四种机制来了解注意力偏见，工作记忆困难和长期记忆偏见如何相互作用并导致抑郁。我们审查了每种机制的证据，并强调了时间和上下文相关的动力学。我们概述了该领域的研究方法论和建议。我们以指导方向进行总结，以加深对抑郁症风险，认知训练干预措施，
