Details
During the study participants will be asked to play a computer game called Cyberball, a three-player Internet ball-tossing game in which you will be asked to visualize yourself and the other players as if you were tossing a ball back-and-forth in real life. After playing the game (lasting approximately 4 minutes), you will then be asked to complete a questionnaire about your experience during the game. The questionnaire includes 34 questions and takes 5 – 10 minutes to complete.
