Does reward-seeking behaviour differ between individuals with OCD and problem gambling? YES! 🧠🎲
@szkshnsk, in collaboration with @Mon_Bio_Imaging used computational psychiatry to elucidate the underlying brain processes for these mental disorders.

Is personality linked to problematic smartphone use (PSU)? 🧠🤳
See our latest pub by PhD student @Akiraliu1 which is the first study that explored the relationships between the Big Five personality traits and PSU symptoms from a network perspective. 👇🏼
