Recruiting
18-59 years
All

This study investigates the brain's response to recognizing faces and how personality traits influence this process. Facial recognition involves identifying and understanding faces, which is a complex mental task. Researchers aim to understand the brain's activity during this task and how personality features might affect it.

Participants will undergo procedures to measure brain activity while they recognize different faces. This will help scientists see how the brain reacts to facial features and how personality traits might change this reaction.

  • Who can participate: Adults aged 18 to 59 who have normal or corrected vision and hearing, can read and write in English, and are free from major medical conditions can participate. Specific personality traits such as eccentricities or unusual beliefs are considered for certain study arms.
  • Study details: Participants will be asked to recognize various faces while their brain activity is monitored. This study involves examining how different facial features and personality traits affect brain responses during facial recognition tasks.
