We are evaluating Cognitive and Motor Performance in Young Athletes!
Who is Eligible: Athletes in organized sports, ages 18-24, with 1 prior concussion
Why: The purpose of this study is to measure brain activity changes in athletes while they complete cognitive, motor, and vision tasks. Later, these findings will be compared to healthy athletes to help us better understand sports-related concussion.
Where: Brainwaves Research Lab and SCORE Lab @ Colorado State
University
What to Expect: A cap, similar to a swim cap, with EEG sensors or fIRS optodes will be placed on your head. While the cap is on your head, you will be asked to complete computer-based tasks (e.g. listening to tones, pressing buttons as quickly as possible) and other cognitive (e.g. mental math), motor (e.g. walking) tasks or visual (e.g. tracking a moving object) tasks.
How Long: This study includes 1-2 sessions that will last ~ 2 hours each.
Participants will be compensated with cash at a rate of $35/hour for a possible total compensation of $140-$175.
*Recent injuries include head injuries, like concussions, or more severe brain injuries.
