Different experiences related, in particular, to experimental activities, assessment, neurocognitive enhancement, and neurorehabilitation have been presented. 13 March 2021 – Brief description: The International Research Center for Cognitive Applied Neuroscience (IrcCAN), Faculty of Psychology, Catholic University of the Sacred Heart of Milan, organized a Neuroscientific Digital Room to discover a new tool for testing sensitivity to new behavioral addictions thanks to a battery of neuropsychological tests delivered online. This new neuropsicological battery has been recently validated. It emphasizes strengths and weaknesses at the level of cognitive functioning and related executive functions involved in high-level cognitive processes and decision. The battery can be used to promote behavioral addiction prevention in different age groups.
