In this project, you will be asked to do various response time and cognitive tasks on the first session. A subset of participants will be asked back to do two follow-up sessions. Please only enroll if you are available to complete all sessions as you may be asked to return. Session 1 will take approximately 1 hour, whilst session 2 and 3 will last approximately 30 minutes.

The three sessions need to occur exactly one week apart from each other.
Thus, if you choose to do the first session on a Monday for the first session, you will be asked to come back on the two following Mondays for follow-up testing. Even though the day of the week must be the same, you still have the option to select the time that is most convenient for you. Please book the first session only if you are available for all sessions.
You will earn 6 pounds if you complete only the first session. If you are asked to come back, you will receive a 15 pounds Amazon voucher after completing all sessions, i.e. 6 pounds for completing the first session and 9 for completing the follow-up as these are shorter.
