Summary

This study aims to develop and validate a test that uses time estimation to reveal emotional disorders in people with neurological diseases. Researchers first need to establish normal reference values in 150 healthy adults aged 20 to 92. The test measures how emotional video clips affect a person's sense of time, which may indicate underlying emotional issues.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this test could help doctors spot early emotional problems in people with neurological diseases.
What could go wrong
This is an early validation study in healthy volunteers, so it does not test the test's ability to diagnose actual patients. The results may not translate to real-world clinical use.
