Children and adults aged 8-25 with no history of neurological/psychiatric disorder/disease and no contraindications to MRI will be included in this study. All participants will be right-handed native Dutch speakers with normal or corrected-to normal vision.
Potential participants will be prescreened for contraindications for MRI, which include metal implants, a pacemaker, claustrophobia, and possible pregnancy (in adult females). They will additionally be prescreened for head trauma, premature birth, learning disabilities, and history of neurological or psychiatric illness and/or use of psychotropic medications. Because of the difficulties in interpreting cognitive studies in subjects with Dutch as a second language, only native-Dutch speakers will be asked to participate in the study. Finally, left-handed individuals will be excluded from the study because some left-handers have substantially different brain organization relative to right-handers.
