Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to investigate differences in self-recognition and self/other distinction between individuals with psychological vulnerability and healthy controls. Participants will engage with a double mirror device that morphs their image into that of another person, allowing researchers to assess their perception of self and others. The study focuses on young individuals aged 15 to 25, utilizing a specific testing paradigm to explore potential links between these cognitive abilities and psychological symptoms. By comparing responses from both groups, the research seeks to enhance understanding of psychological vulnerabilities in youth.
