Exciting study on the psychobiological impact of social exclusion in adolescents with NSSI. Findings provide insights into the immediate stress response to social exclusion, going beyond traditional Cyberball. Grateful for another great collaboration within an FWF-funded project #NSSI #Bullying

Pleased to see our collaboration with @andreasgoreis.bsky.social, @odkothgassner.bsky.social, and colleagues now published. 📖 We examine how experimental ostracism impacts cortisol, autonomic regulation, and affect in adolescents with nonsuicidal self-injury.

Amazing collaboration and teamwork! Excited to share our work on the interplay between trauma symptoms and non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). There is still much to learn and future studies will help us better understand the shared biological mechanisms that may link these phenomena #NSSI #PTSD
