Neuropsychology and Addiction

Neuropsychology is a part of psychology that looks at how the brain and nervous system affect a person's thinking and behavior. People who work in this field study how problems or injuries in the brain can change how someone thinks and acts.

Addiction, identified as a neuropsychological disorder, is marked by a persistent and intense compulsion to engage in specific activities, often involving the use of a substance, despite significant harm and adverse consequences. Repetitive drug use consistently alters brain function, reinforcing cravings, and undermining self-control.
