A new paradigm is needed to leverage the developmental trajectory of MNN disorders, based on measuring brain function through the life span. Electroencephalography (EEG) is ideally suited for this task. New developments in several fields, including consumer EEG hardware, …

Self-reported crime exposure was significantly associated with poorer behavioral health. Violent victimization had the largest association …
