Participants needed for decision-making study

Healthy participants age 18-40 are needed to participate in a research study at the JHU medical campus/Kennedy Krieger Institute. The study consists of two consecutive sessions, one lasting about one hour, the other about one and a half hours. At the end of the second session, participants will be paid ~$50 for their time. During the study, participants will perform a series of hand-gripping tasks and choices, while we measure the force they exert and how they activate their muscles.

Please note, you are NOT eligible if:

  • You are pregnant
  • You have been diagnosed with a neurological disorder (like tremor/TBI/PD/stroke)
  • You have been diagnosed with a neuropsychiatric disorder (like depression/anxiety)
