neuroscientific approaches

Neuroscientific approaches study the brain and nervous system to understand how they influence thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Researchers use techniques like brain imaging (MRI, PET scans) to observe brain activity, and analyze neural connections to understand function and dysfunction. These methods help identify how different brain regions work together, what changes occur in mental health conditions, and how learning or injuries impact the brain. Ultimately, neuroscientific approaches aim to uncover the biological basis of mental processes, leading to better treatments and insights into human cognition and behavior.
