Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine which event-related potentials (ERPs) and event-related oscillations (EROs) are associated with fear conditioning, avoidance learning, and memory recall for fear and avoidance, where are the source generators of the observed scalp EEG activity, the impact of fear and avoidance learning on the decision to avoid or not to avoid conditioned stimuli , to examine the large-scale functional connectivity across distributed brain regions across experimental phases, and to examine whether spontaneous EEG data during resting-state correlate with the EEG measures during experimental tasks.
Primary Outcome
On day 1 during the image familiarization phase (also called the viewing phase), participants will be presented with images on a computer screen from three different object categories, such as fruits, animals, and tools, and participants will be instructed to passively view the presented images. During the viewing phase, Skin Conductance Response (SCR) will be recorded to assess participants' response to each object category. SCR is measured by placing two electrodes on the skin and passing a t
