Research Description

Jintao Zhang, the professor in the State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning at Beijing Normal University. The Changjiang Young Scholar in 2020. Dr. Zhang received his PhD degree from the Institute of Developmental Psychology, Beijing Normal University in 2009. He visited Wayne State University and Yale University as an exchange PhD candidate and a visiting scholar in 2008 and 2014 year respectively. Dr. Zhang’s current work focuses on the brain and behavioral mechanism of adolescent’s internet addiction (including Internet Gaming Disorder), Combined with Cognitive experimental task, Questionnaire, and fMRI technique, by contrasting the individuals with Internet gaming disorder and healthy user, his study explore the brain mechanism of the development, maintain and of Internet addiction and some cognitive characteristics related to Internet addiction. He has published more than 70 academic papers in well-established Journals, including Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, Neuropsychopharmacology, The American Journal of Psychiatry, Journal of Neuroscience, Addiction, Addiction Biology, Computers in Human Behavioral and so on.
