Research Study for 7-9 year-olds and their Parents

Do you have children between the ages of 7-9 years old? Are you curious how watching TV affects what they eat? Help us learn about how kids make decisions about what foods to eat!

Participants are compensated $200 for their time.

If you are interested, please contact Travis Masterson at tpm5262@psu.edu or call our laboratory at 814-865-4404 and mention the commercial study.

Your child will eat meals in our laboratory and watch a few cartoons. We will also use fMRI to take pictures of your child's brain. This procedure is not harmful.

This study will be conducted in 5 visits that occur 1 week apart.
