Summary

This study looks at brain activity in 100 adults with epilepsy who already have electrodes in their brains for medical reasons. Researchers will record brain signals while participants answer questionnaires and do memory or impulse-control tasks. The goal is to learn how brain activity relates to depression, anxiety, OCD, and impulsivity, which could lead to better ways to diagnose or treat these conditions in the future.
