The UWM Anxiety Disorder Lab and the UWM Affective Neuroscience Lab are currently testing computer-based treatment programs designed to help adults (aged 18-60) suffering from problematic repetitive behaviors. This research is conducted by the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and is funded by the National Institutes of Mental Health. Study procedures will be completed through at home computer-based training programs/assessments as well as assessments and brain imaging tasks at the Medical College of Wisconsin over the course of 8-15 weeks.
