Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The project will include three studies in which we will examine whether people<br /><br>are more motivated to perform well on a moral task compared to a competence<br /><br>task and what brain activation is associated with this heightened motivation<br /><br>(study 1), whether people are more motivated to perform well on a moral task<br /><br>compared to a competence task when they are observed by and given feedback from<br /><br>an ingroup or outgroup member and what brain activation is associated with this<br /><br>feedback (study 2), and whether people are more sensitive to moral behavior<br /><br>compared to competent behavior of an ingroup or outgroup member and what brain<br /><br>activation is associated with the reaction to that behavior (study 3). To this<br /><br>end, we will perform three studies to acquire fMRI data and behavioral<br /><br>responses of participants aged 18-25 years. </p><br>
