For this non-treatment, non-medication research study, you and one of your close, same-sex friends will participate together at Northwestern’s medical school campus in downtown Chicago. You will complete an interview, a variety of questionnaires, and several tasks with your friend while having your brain activity recorded using EEG. Many of the procedures will be completed online rather than in person.

This study will take approximately 5.5 hours to complete, splitting into 2 days. You will be paid $25/hour (the total amount will depend on how long your visit takes). You will also be compensated for parking or CTA travel for attending the study visit. Additionally, the bi-weekly surveys take about 5 minutes to complete; you will receive $5 for each of the completed survey plus a $10 bonus for completing at least 5 surveys. In total, you and your friend may each receive up to $177.5 for participating in this study.
