Participants showedincreased levels of negative affect following pandemic onset, which were partly modulated by laboratory measures of threat responsiveness.Decreased differentiation of threat and safety signals in participants with higher prepandemic depression and anxiety scores in the laboratoryassessment were most predictive of increased symptom levels after the onset of the pandemic.
