Been very busy lately but i have been researching scientific papers. There seems to be more research carried out in the US than anywhere else. Some traits were identified his people who were hoarders. I hope to write an article (or two) summarising the findings. Though whether the characteristics of hoarders can be used as diagnostic tools globally as yet to be explored.
