Summary

This study looks at how stress and anxiety affect learning and decision-making. Researchers will have participants do tasks like putting a hand in ice water or warm water, then measure how they value rewards and predict emotions. The goal is to understand the link between stress, anxiety, and choices, not to test a treatment.
