What this Trial Is About
Researchers are investigating how adolescents with nonsuicidal self-injury NSSI regulate their emotions using a strategy called acceptance. This observational study compares adolescents with NSSI to healthy controls to understand differences in emotional experience and brain activity. The study focuses on naturalistic emotional contexts using immersive video clips and measures brain responses through functional magnetic resonance imaging fMRI. Participants include two groups of adolescents aged 15 to 18 years one group with NSSI and one healthy control group. Both groups receive brief training on an acceptance mindset as an emotion regulation strategy. The study uses immersive videos to evoke emotions while measuring brain activity and subjective feelings. During the study, participants will report their emotional experiences and undergo about 30 minutes of fMRI scanning to record brain activity related to emotion regulation. Researchers will compare behavioral and neural responses between groups to better understand emotional regulation in NSSI. The total study duration and follow-up details are not specified.
