About the project
This project is an empirical study that currently involves two master students and two post docs. Professor René Huster is the principal investigator.
In this project, we investigate how individuals control behaviour and withhold responses when necessary. We want to recruit healthy right-handed participants for this study. We would like you to complete a computer-based task while we measure your brain activity with electroencephalography (EEG). In addition, we will measure muscle activity in your hands with electromyography (EMG) and collect some basic demographic information about you, such as age, gender, and handedness. EEG and EMG will be applied concurrently while you are doing the computer-based experiment. EEG is considered a safe, non-invasive method and is one of the standard tools used in clinical diagnostics and brain research (for more information, please see the attached Participant Information Sheet). The whole session will last about 2 hours (1-hour preparation and 1-hour experimental task) and take place at the Psychological Institute at University of Oslo. Participants receive a universal gift card worth 300 NOK as compensation.
