Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Cue specific P200 event-related potential relative to no cue, cue specific P300 event-related potential relative to no cue. Independent variables: Subjective value, Subjective probability, dopaminergic antagonism by haloperidol and noradrenergic antagonism by clonidine.
Secondary outcome
- Velocity scaling measurement
- Spontaneous motor activity measurement
- Event related potentials in response to the target
- Reaction times in response to the target
- Target omissions and percentage correct responses
- Questionnaire scores (attentional control, State-trait anxiety inventory)
Study objective
We hypothesize that the brain dopamine system plays a role in subjective probability processing and we hypothesize that both the brain dopamine and noradrenaline system play a role in subjective value processing.
Study design
Participants will be tested during 3 separate sessions.
Measurements will be made 3 hours after capsule intake.
Intervention
- one capsule containing 150 microgram clonidine
- one capsule containing 2 milligram haloperidol
- one capsule containing placebo
