Brain and Body Perception Study

Av Annamari Saarinen Skapad: 2024-10-28

In this study, we investigate how people perceive their bodies by using visual and tactile illusions. In one session, we will measure your neural activity using electroencephalography (EEG; non-invasive technique) while you receive gentle touches on your hand. In another session, we will measure your structural brain image (MRI; non-invasive technique).
Important: If you have participated in other studies about body perception in our lab, you can still participate in this study.
The first session takes around 3 hours and the second session takes around 30 minutes. You will be compensated 600 SEK (taxable). If you are interested, please sign up. We will contact you by email.

Requirements:
- You are between 18 and 45 years of age.
- You have no neurological or psychiatric diagnoses
- You are not taking psychoactive drugs
- You are right-handed
- You do not have dreadlocks
- You are not claustrophobic (because you will be in an MRI scanner for 15 minutes)
- You do not have metallic objects in your body (if you are unsure, let us know)
- Not to be pregnant
- You can attend both the first session (in Solnavägen 9) AND the second session (in Svante Arrhenius väg 16A).
