Seeking Healthy Sleepers for Study on Fatigue

Researchers at Toronto Metropolitan University are seeking 51 people who do not have trouble sleeping to participate in an research study about the relationship between fatigue and cognition (e.g., attention and memory). Participants will be asked to answer questions about demographics (age, gender, ethnicity), sleep, fatigue, and cognition, and will complete a brief cognitive task. Participation is fully online and takes place using Qualtrics (an online survey platform) and Pavlovia (an online platform for running experiments).

If you are 18+ years of age, have normal/corrected-to-normal vision, and do NOT have a sleep disorder, you may be eligible to participate. To determine your eligibility, you will be asked to partake in a brief phone interview and to complete sleep diaries in your home each morning for 1 week.

If you are eligible, you will be asked not to use alcohol 12 hours and caffeine 6 hours before completing the online study. Eligible participants will be reimbursed $9.75 for completing the 1-hour study.

Thank you for your interest!
