CU PATH is a clinical psychology training clinic that provides comprehensive, evidence-based psychological assessment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and learning disabilities at a lower cost than can generally be found in the community. Our evaluations can be used as documentation of diagnoses for most universities, primary schools and some workplaces, and also include recommendations based on current research and clinical practice. 

Scheduling is currently on hold for evaluations of cognitive problems following concussions/brain injuries, age-related cognitive changes or other neuropsychological evaluations. Please check this website regularly for updates.

You will receive compensation for your participation.

The SHINE Lab at CU Boulder is recruiting groups of two participants for a cognitive neuro-scientific study on complex teams during a "team mission task." Our goal is to understand how different brain systems relate to behavioral performance and to psychological concepts measured by self-report measures. We can only run sessions with two participants, so encourage your friends to sign up, too!  

Eligibility

Who can join this study: 

• Ages 18–65  
• Can speak and read English  
• Comfortable and familiar using computers  
• Comfortable and able to communicate via email, text or phone 

Where

Center for Innovation and Creativity (CINC), Room 184E  
1777 Exposition Drive, Boulder, CO 80301  
(This room is inaccessible without a key so will meet you in the lobby.) 

Details

In this research experiment, you are invited to complete questionnaires and computer-based tasks that will be carried out at CINC. You will interact with a keyboard and mouse to complete these tasks. Also, you will wear a mesh cap on your head that has light optodes attached to it that measure changes in blood flow (functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS)).

This study lasts about 2.5 hours and the pay is $37.50 with additional performance-based bonuses (up to $20 extra).

While there are no direct benefits to you as a participant, you will gain a unique look at how cognitive neuroscience research is conducted all while having fun! There may be some minor discomfort after wearing the fNIRS cap for more than two hours. As with any research, there is some possibility of risks that have not yet been identified 

Please register for an experiment slot.

On Monday, Aug. 4, between 7 and 8 a.m., a group of CU Boulder researchers will conduct an experiment on East Campus that includes simulated gunshots from a starter pistol. The simulated gunfire will take place at various locations between Colorado Avenue and the Boulder Creek Path from Innovation Drive to Discovery Drive. Individuals who work at the SEEC, SEEL, Aerospace, LASP, Astrophysical Research Lab and Jenny Smoly Caruthers Biotech buildings may hear gunfire or witness the roughly hour-long experiment.

The University of Colorado Police Department (CUPD) is coordinating with the research group and will have a presence on site to ensure there is no cause for concern. 

Below is a map of the area with the approximate locations of the simulated gunfire testing represented by the yellow dots.
