Volunteers are needed for a paid experimental study investigating language production in typically developing adults. Participants must be:
- right-handed
- a native English speaker
- 18-35 years of age
- with no history of neurological disorders or language/learning disabilities
- with normal or corrected-to-normal vision
The researchers are utilizing electroencephalogram technology to record brain activity while participants name images they see on a computer screen. The images can show you your brain activity in real time. EEG experiments involve wearing on your head a cap made up of a number of electrodes that painlessly record brain activity.
Study sessions take place in Fells Point (Thames Street), and volunteers are reimbursed for parking costs.
Compensation is $15/hour for a session lasting two to three hours.
If you are interested in participating or want more details, contact Adna Jaganjac at ajaganj1@jhmi.edu. The study will begin scheduling sessions for the first two weeks of December.
