Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Study 1 The measured physiological stress responses (heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and electrodermal response) and cortisol response during all tasks. Study 2 The amplitude of the P300 and Feedback Related Negativity (FRN) component in response to both positive and negative feedback in the BART task during different stressor intensities. Study 3 The BOLD response in the striatum, anterior cingulate cortex, insula, dorsolateral and ventromedial prefrontal cortex, amygdala, and orbitofrontal cortex in response to positive and negative feedback and during decision-making, during different stressor intensities, during all BART trials.
