Structured PICO

Does high perceived control increase the reward positivity and stimulus preceding negativity compared to low perceived control in female participants?

Population

25 female participants

Intervention

High perceived control condition (participants told they could learn a mouse-click rule to see only reward pictures)

Comparator

Low perceived control condition (participants told pictures would appear randomly)

Outcome

Reward positivity (RewP) and stimulus preceding negativity (SPN) amplitudessurrogate

Perceiving control over outcomes increases approach motivation and its intensity, modulating the processing of performance feedback as measured by ERPs.
