Scientists create brain games to crack the code of addiction

NCT ID NCT05707806

Summary

This study aims to create and test a set of computer-based tasks to measure how people learn and make decisions. Researchers want to understand if these tasks can reliably measure thinking patterns, which may help explain why some people develop substance use disorders. Healthy volunteers will complete tasks involving smells, tastes, pictures, and sounds while their physical responses are monitored. Some participants will also have their brain activity scanned during the tasks.
