Study Summary
This work aims to study the neural correlates and determinants of pain dynamics related to changes in a noxious stimulus.
Primary Outcome
We will compare acute pain dynamics-i.e., the time series of pain visual analog scale ratings (0-100, where 0 = no pain and 100 = worst pain imaginable) obtained while delivering a changing noxious stimulus-during the methylphenidate condition to that of the placebo condition.
Interventions
- DRUG Placebo
- DRUG Methylphenidate
