Nikki A. Puccetti studies how patterns of thinking such as worry, rumination, and negative interpretation bias relate to brain activity and real-world emotional experience. This work combines brain imaging (neuroimaging) with everyday mood tracking to understand risk factors for anxiety and depression (often called internalizing disorders). The research aims to link laboratory measures of brain function to daily emotional life and mental health outcomes.
Publication output began around 2020, peaked in 2021, and has continued at a modest steady pace of one to two papers per year through 2025.
