MINT Study, Mapping Impulsivity Neurodevelopmental Trajectories

Description:

Are you 15 to 30 years old? Help science learn about self-control and decision making in the growing brain!

Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with even higher rates of impulsivity and self-control problems. Findings from this study may help us better understand the development of self-control in adolescents and young adults with and without ADHD.

Recruitment Period:
We are actively recruiting teenagers and young adults to participate in this study. Compensation is available.
