Context-specific fine motor training and language processing in young adults

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a randomized, single-blind trial that will assign right-handed healthy participants aged 19–24 to either a context-specific fine manual dexterity training or a simpler control task in a 1:1 ratio. Both groups will complete 20-minute sessions five times per week, with pre- and post-intervention testing of fine manual dexterity and syntactic language processing. Participants with prior neurological or psychiatric disorders, traumatic brain injury, use of psychoactive substances or medications affecting cognition, and pregnant women will be excluded. The sample is a convenience sample and size will be determined from a pilot study.
