Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Participants with low video game experience (0\-1 hours per week in last year) and low meditation/relaxation experience (no experience, or none in last year and less than 5 hours in lifetime) will be selected based on their responses to the Video Game Playing Questionnaire (VGPQ) (Bediou et al., 2018\), and a customised meditation / relaxation experience questionnaire. Participants will be male and female, aged between 18 and 35\. Only right\-handed individuals will be recruited due to their more consistent lateralisation of brain areas. Participants will have normal or corrected\-to\-normal vision and hearing, so they are able to see the stimuli and hear instructions clearly. In addition, all participants will speak English as a first language to account for differences in processing language related stimuli such as the letter/symbol stimuli used in the cognitive tasks.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Standard exclusion criteria for EEG/ERP research will also apply, so that any differences in brain activity are not attributable to other factors. These exclusion criteria include: any history of major psychiatric or neurological disorders (including epilepsy), severe head injury, seizure, giddiness or loss of consciousness (\>2 mins), a heart condition or any other serious physical condition, current daily tobacco use, recent history of illicit drug use, current use of prescription medications (excluding the contraceptive pill), current sleep disorders, and pregnancy or a high likelihood of pregnancy. Those with high levels of Psychological distress (scores \>30 on the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale – K10\) or risk of alcohol dependence (scores greater 16 on the Alcohol Use and Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) will also be excluded.
