Clinical Study
Avenues for Improving Memory
This study wants to learn the processes of how a persons new movements are learned and remembered. Participants will attend 2 separate in-person visits at the University of Utah. Each visit can last 20 to 40 minutes. Participants will complete a survey and a series of finger tapping tasks on a computer while sounds are played at each visit. Participates will write in a sleep diary 3 nights before the first visit and the night between the 1st and 2nd visit . During the night between the 1st and 2nd visit participants will wear a watch on the wrist to record times of activity and rest. Participants will be paid for their time.
