Demographics Survey


How do demographics affect brain function and behavior?

In the Demographics Survey, participants are asked to provide some basic information about themselves, like their age, gender, race/ethnicity, etc. Collecting demographic information is standard and critical for brain and behavior research. It provides data on who the research participants are and whether they are a representative sample of the target population. It also allows researchers to ask whether certain factors, like age and gender, may explain their study results.
