The purpose of this research study is to better understand the mental fatigue that occurs during repeated performance of a challenging task. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data will be collected while I repeatedly perform a task in the scanner that involves my mental concentration. I will be asked to pay close attention to the directions given to me on how to perform the study task.
