Kids aged 8 to 17 are needed for a study examining how young people think and solve problems.

Brock University is looking for children to participate in a brain activity study. 

Researchers will be working with children's mental health professionals to examine how young people think and solve problems. 

The school says youth aged 8 to 17 are needed for the study. 

The study will look at brain activity while young people focus their attention. 

It will also look at changes they may experience as they get older. 

Participants will wear an electroencephalogram (EEG) net on their head while doing activities on a computer. 

The EEG will capture real-time brain activity that will be analyzed by researchers. 

Participants and their parents will receive $50 in gift cards. 

Anyone interested in more information should contact the lab team at dnlab@brocku.ca
