Summary

This trial is looking for healthy right-handed volunteers 18-65 years old to help develop tasks that investigate a person's behavior.

What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include discomfort from loud noises (despite earplugs), having to lie still inside the scanner which could cause stiffness or soreness, and potential anxiety due to confinement in the MRI cylinder.
