Scientists scan teen brains to unlock clues about suicide risk

NCT ID NCT07294079

Summary

This study aims to understand why some teenage girls develop suicidal thoughts while others do not. Researchers will observe 100 girls, aged 12-17, who are at high risk, tracking their brain activity during social tasks, their daily text messages, and their feelings via smartphone surveys over six months. The goal is to learn how reactions to social stress affect real-world relationships and long-term mental health, to find better ways to support teens.
