What does this involve?

This study investigates the effect of atomoxetine on effort processing using a series of behavioural tasks. Participation involves one online screening meeting followed by two in-person study visits. Atomoxetine is a medication used to treat ADHD, it has a well-defined safety profile and is approved for use in the UK in adults and children. Atomoxetine acts on the noradrenaline reuptake receptors and increases the availability of this neurotransmitter in the brain.
