Study: mild brain stimulation to investigate motivation

Monash University is currently seeking healthy right-handed adult participants (between 18-65 years) to take part in a study investigating the effects of brain stimulation on motivation.

The study involves the use of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) which is a safe, painless and non-invasive means of stimulating nerve cells in the brain. Motivation will be studied via a computerised task and brain activity will be monitored using EEG, which is a safe, non-invasive method of recording brain function.

Participants will be required to participate in three separate sessions. The first session will last approximately 3 hours. The remaining two sessions will take approximately 2 hours to complete.

Potential participants will be screened prior to their involvement in the study to ensure that they are eligible to take part. Participants will be reimbursed to cover their travel expenses for each session.

If you are interested or would like more information, please contact Marie-Claire Davis on 0435 940 161 or at marie-claire.davis@monash.edu.
