Background: The influence of alcohol use on later neurocognitive functioning is well researched, yet few studies have investigated whether neurocognition post-drinking initiation in adolescence predicts changes in later alcohol use.
Objective: Investigate neurocognitive task performance during maximum alcohol use in late adolescence as predictors of drinking behaviors 3-7 years later.
Methods: Analyses () were conducted on a longitudinal dataset involving adolescents (12-13 years-old) who were followed for 16 years.

Objective: Prior work has documented inequities in disordered eating behavior (DEB) prevalence across gender identity, race, and ethnicity, yet has often ignored the fact that individuals belong to multiple social groups simultaneously. The present study assessed DEB inequities at the intersection of gender identity and race/ethnicity.
Method: The sample included n = 10,287 adolescents (68% gender-diverse, 33% belonging to marginalized racial/ethnic groups).

Background: Psychosocial and pharmacological interventions can effectively treat eating disorders (EDs), but improvements are often short-term and modest. Neuromodulation, altering nerve activity through targeted neurological stimulation, is an emerging intervention in neuropsychiatric disorders. This meta-review synthesizes evidence on neuromodulatory techniques in ED patients, identifying research gaps and future directions.

Binge-watching is often studied in research, and discussed in lay writings, under the assumption that it is a maladaptive and problematic behavior. However, as with all media use, there are circumstances in which binge-watching may be functional for an individual. This paper explores the role of intentionality-defined as the extent to which a viewing session was planned and executed as planned-in differentiating problematic from unproblematic binge-watching behavior.

In recent years, methamphetamine (METH) misuse in the US has been rapidly increasing, and there is no FDA-approved pharmacotherapy for METH use disorder (MUD). In addition to being dependent on the drug, people with MUD develop a variety of neurological problems related to the toxicity of this drug. A variety of molecular mechanisms underlying METH neurotoxicity has been identified, including the dysfunction of the neuroprotective protein parkin.
