Research volunteers wanted for a brainwave study!

Our Penn State colleagues travel to SWVA to run this study. Participants will listen to words or sentences in English while wearing a cap of electrodes filled with a water-soluble gel to record their naturally-occurring neural activity. Participants are paid $20 an hour (in half hour increments), and the experiment will take around 2.5 hours, in Shanks Hall on VT campus!

Requirements:

• You’ve spent most of your life in Southwest Virginia or Eastern Tennessee

• You grew up only speaking English and no other languages

• You have not reached high proficiency in a language other than English

• You are 18-35 years

• You are right-handed

• You have no history of hearing difficulties or neurological disorders

• You have normal or corrected-to-normal vision
