Mechanical Turk 10
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of delivering
cognitive training over mTurk. Subjects will be randomized to a 1) inhibitory control
training condition, 2) working memory training condition, or 3) control training condition.
Recent studies have also demonstrated the feasibility and potential efficacy of delivering
brief normative feedback to reduce alcohol consumption through mTurk. In these brief
interventions, subjects are provided information about their drinking compared to their same
age and gendered peers. Approximately half of the subjects in each cognitive training group
will receive normative feedback to evaluate effects on alcohol consumption and possible
interactions with cognitive training. This study will focus on alcohol use given the ease and
clinical acceptance of alcohol use self-report as a primary outcome.
