Adolescent Behavior, Borderline Personality Disorder

Brief summary

The disruption of social cognition associated with borderline personality disorder (BPD), and more specifically categorization of facial emotions, remains largely under-studied, despite the high frequency of this pathology in the clinical population. The first results differ from the observations made in adults and this confirms the relevance of studying this theme specifically in adolescence. On the cognitive level, there is a disturbance of the detection and the categorization of the facial emotions in the TPL. The characteristics of this disturbance and its possible association with an attack on the connectivity of the brain remain unknown in adolescence. No functional imaging studies are published in adolescent TPL. This pilot bimodal functional imaging study EEG-NIRS aims to collect preliminary and feasibility data to support a response to upcoming PHRC competitions and eventually offer a science thesis opportunity.
