Help us understand language in the brain!

Have you experienced speech, language or reading challenges at any point in time (e.g., learning disability)? Do you find yourself having trouble keeping up in conversation or spoken lectures? Or do you read the same thing over and over and have trouble understanding what you read?

 

Dr. Larson from the Department of Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences at Mizzou is doing research on language in the brain. We are enrolling adults ages 18-40 with a history of speech, language or reading difficulty.

 

What’s involved? You’ll spend a few hours doing tasks involving language and problem-solving over Zoom, and you’ll receive a brain scan using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) on the University of Missouri campus (1416 Carrie Francke Drive), lasting a total of 2-6 hours of your time.

 

You will be compensated up to $100 or via extra credit, and we can provide a formal report describing language and cognitive assessment performance.
