Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Change in relative timing of intention-to-act vs action production
Change in resting state activity in temporal-parietal junction brain region
Secondary outcome measures
Change in brain activity related to 'intention to act'
Change in brain activity related to motor production
