- Work is essential for productivity, social life, and mental health, but reliable tools to measure work addiction are limited.
- The study aimed to test and revise the Work Addiction Risk Test (WART) using a large representative sample from Hungary, focusing on those working at least 40 hours a week.

We addressed three distinct functions and brain regions with a perceptual (contour integration, CI), motor (finger tapping, FT), and executive control (Navon global-local) task.
