Daniel shared: I am in my final year of studying Psychology and I am wondering if you could partake in my thesis experiment if you have any spare time and potentially share it with others that are 18 or older. I am testing the effectiveness of a new decondition technique I created to see if it could be used as an intervention or treatment for anxiety and negative thoughts. Thank you.

Must Be Completed On A Laptop Or Desktop Computer!!!

Estimated Duration: 30 – 60 Minutes
