Migraine & Cognition – LTU School of Psychology and Public Health

Participate in ResearchResearchers at LTU’s School of Psychology and Public Health are interested in the cognitive changes that people with migraine may experience, outside of their migraine attacks. We are looking for both people who experience migraine and ‘healthy’ controls to complete some cognitive tests and questionnaires about mood and personality.

The 1.5 to 2-hour assessment will take place on Zoom, which can be conducted at home. All participants will be placed in a randomised prize draw where 1 in 8 participants will receive a $50 e-gift voucher. The total time commitment is estimated to be 2 to 3 hours, depending on your level of participation.
