Summary

This study looks at whether brain activity can predict when someone will make a mistake during a typing task, up to 1 second before it occurs. Researchers will use brain scans (MRI and MEG) to compare brain patterns before errors versus correct actions. The goal is to understand how the brain prepares for skilled movements and potentially develop real-time warnings. The study involves 40 healthy, right-handed adults aged 18-35.
