The Neuromechanics Lab needs volunteers for a study on learning and effort in a walking task. We are interested in how the effort involved in a movement impacts how you learn in a new environment. The task involves walking on a treadmill with separate belts for each foot at walking speeds.

Qualifications:

• English-speaking
• 18–35 years old
• Normal or corrected vision
• No movement control or vestibular problems
• No recent orthopedic surgeries or broken bones

The study will involve two visits (the first lasting 75 minutes and the second lasting 65 minutes) to our campus laboratory in the Engineering Center (1B21 ECSL) at 1111 Engineering Drive. It will include motion-capture of your walking gait. Subjects will be compensated with an Amazon gift card for $25.

If interested, please fill out a screening survey. Contact Rachel Marbaker at rachel.marbaker@colorado.edu or 719-373-1748 with any questions.
