Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
In the present study, fMRI is used to examine the effects of ASMR stimulation in a randomized cross-over design. Half of the subjects (n=14) receive the ASMR stimulation first, and then the control stimulation (audiobook). The other half of the subjects (n=14) listens to the control stimulation (audiobook) first and afterward to the ASMR stimulation. Typical "tingling" triggering sounds are presented via MRI-compatible headphones. Those sounds can consist of different noises (e.g., whisper, scratching, and knocking).
The primary outcome measure is a change in the functional connectivity of the Default Mode Network as a response to the ASMR stimulation.
