Neural correlates of social exclusion and overinclusion in patients with borderline personality disorder: an fMRI study

Table 2 Average ratings of valence of emotional experience and inner tension after exclusion, inclusion, and overinclusion conditions in a Cyberball task

Ratings		Cyberball condition
Ratings		Exclusion	Inclusion	Overinclusion
Valence of emotional experience	BPD	M = 2.31	M = 3.09	M = 3.17
	BPD	SD = .71	SD = .76	SD = .77
	HC	M = 3.22	M = 3.72	M = 3.76
	HC	SD = .89	SD = .96	SD = .87
Inner tension	BPD	M = 3.17	M = 2.66	M = 2.64
	BPD	SD = 1.09	SD = .97	SD = 1.04
	HC	M = 2.15	M = 1.86	M = 1.82
	HC	SD = .86	SD = 1.00	SD = .95

Note. BPD borderline personality disorder, HC healthy control, M mean, SD standard deviation; valence of emotional experience (5 points, ranging from 1 = “very unpleasant” to 5 = “very pleasant”); the level of inner tension (5 points, ranging from 1 = “not at all” to 5 = “very strong”)
