Hello, my name is Chloe Walker-Brown and I have suffered with Trichotillomania from as young as 2 years old according to the recollection of my parents. The condition is something I have been used to all of my life and unable to break from. As a now university student, I have decided to focus my research on the condition that I have been so familiar with, yet know so little about from all of my life.
Therefore, I am currently seeking volunteers with or without a diagnosis of Trichotillomania to partake in my research project as part of my dissertation for a Psychology undergraduate degree. This study will focus on the psychological mechanisms of Trichotillomania and inhibitory control, giving focus to the subtypes of ‘focused’ and ‘automatic’ hair pulling. Please note, the use of a computer in order to access this study is preferable, especially for the experimental design.
