Av Angelo Pisani Skapad: 2025-04-14

Hi!

We are looking for healthy participants to take part in a study that aims to understand how body representation contributes to thinking about our personal past and future.

The experiment consists of three sessions on separate days:

In the first session, we will take a photo of you (5 minutes);

The second session will last approximately 70 minutes;

The third session will last approximately 35 minutes.

You will be compensated with 400 SEK (before taxes).

Task
During the study, you will receive gentle touches on your right cheek while looking at your own aged face on a computer screen. You will then answer questions about how you perceived the touches, as well as questions about your self-perception and personality.

Who can participate?
To be eligible, you must:

Be between 20 and 30 years old;

Have no history of neurological, psychiatric, or neurodevelopmental disorders;

Not be currently taking any medication that affects cognitive functioning;

Speak and understand English fluently.
