Summary
This study looks at whether feeling like you're not fully human (self-dehumanization) is a new risk factor for suicide. Researchers will ask 50 adults to imagine a future where they are like a machine, then measure changes in suicidal thoughts and a brain chemical called oxytocin. The goal is to understand how these feelings affect the body and mind.
