Social anxiety and age are associated with neural response to social evaluation during adolescence

Highlights • Brain response to social feedback varies by age and social anxiety severity in youth.• Younger, anxious youth show greater activation to unpredictable negative feedback.• Different associations emerge among older, anxious adolescents.
