To address our research questions, we use and combine a variety of methods, such as:

• Development of novel behavioral and fMRI experiments
• Computational modeling and model-based fMRI analysis
• Ecological momentary assessment & self-reported measures
• Hormone data collection
• Longitudinal data analysis with structural equation modeling
• Multimodal neuroimaging analysis
  • Task-based fMRI analysis with univariate and multivariate pattern analysis
  • Resting-state fMRI analysis and graph theory analysis
  • Structural MRI analysis

Broadly, we take two approaches:

• Designing behavioral and fMRI experiments and collecting new data
• Conducting secondary data analysis using open datasets such as Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development (ABCD) dataset
