BRAIN IMAGING & SOCIAL DECISION MAKING STUDY

Healthy adult participants (60-90 years of age) are needed for a research study of brain function and social decision making.

Participants will undergo:

1) A 1.5 to 2.5 hour clinical evaluation involving memory, personality, cognitive and socioeconomic measures.
2) A separate 1.5 to 2 hour functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study while viewing emotional and neutral pictures or words on a screen.

Only right-handed individuals age 18 years or older, without pacemakers, aneurysm clips, or other metallic objects in the head and upper body are eligible for fMRI. Participants will be paid $150 in total for their time.
