Scientists zap ears to see how your brain handles praise and cash
NCT ID NCT02816632
Summary
This study aimed to understand how our brains process different kinds of feedback, like social praise or monetary rewards, when we make decisions. Researchers worked with 76 healthy volunteers, using brain scans and a mild, safe ear stimulation technique to see which brain areas are involved. The goal is to use this basic knowledge to eventually help people with conditions where this feedback system might not work properly.
