Risk and resilience study
05 June 2023
We examine risk and resilience markers to mental health in healthy young adults (aged 18-35 years). We ask young adults about how they feel and think about mental health. We are also interested in how childhood adversity and positive childhood experiences are related to how we solve complex task and how the brain works. That is why we also scan the brain and offer participants a picture of their brain in addition to participation reimbursement.
