Scientists are investigating whether a specific type of brain stimulation, known as intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), has a positive impact on tobacco addiction. In a study recently published in the journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence, they found that both active and placebo-like “sham” iTBS sessions reduced the number of cigarettes smoked daily by participants. The research highlights the complexities of treating addiction through neurological interventions and the need for continued research in this field. iTBS is an advanced form of brain stimulation technology that has emerged f...

In a new study published in the International Journal of Yoga, researchers in India have found significant relationships between mindfulness, the tendency to avoid unpleasant experiences, and problematic smartphone use. The study reveals that while a natural ability to be mindful can reduce the risk of excessive smartphone use, the habit of avoiding distressing situations can increase it by about 25%. These findings underscore the complex interplay between our psychological traits and our interactions with technology. Problematic smartphone use refers to a pattern of smartphone use that is exc...

Lancée début avril en France et en Espagne, cette version de TikTok, propriété du groupe chinois ByteDance, récompense certaines tâches (regarder une vidéo, aimer une vidéo, suivre des personnes, etc.), par des points virtuels à convertir ensuite en argent (bon d'achats PayPal ou Amazon). Mais la Commission européenne, qui fait office de gendarme numérique dans l'Union européenne, estime que l'application a été lancée sans...

A new study finds evidence of a troubling connection between sports gambling and risky alcohol consumption. The findings, published in JAMA Network Open, suggest that individuals who bet on sports, esports, and daily fantasy sports are significantly more likely to engage in binge drinking compared to those who do not gamble or who gamble on other activities. As sports betting becomes more accessible through mobile apps and websites, its correlation with risky behaviors, particularly excessive alcohol consumption, has drawn increased scrutiny. Previous studies have already pointed to higher alc...
