研究実績の概要 |
At the psychological side of the project, we analyzed the predictability of social personality and depressive symptoms and their neuroanatomical basis. We found that participants who reported low trust showed a higher tendency to develop depressive symptoms. Analyzes of brain structure revealed that the brain of low trusts was similar to the brain of depressive patients, with reduced volume of brain regions implicated in social cognition.
