Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether oxytocin influences emotional processing and learning of emotional and social stimuli.

Detailed description

An effect of OXT on emotion processing and anxiety has been broadly investigated in animal studies. However, in humans, effects seem more complex. The rationale of the study is to examine direct effects of OXT to processing and learning of emotional and social values in humans.
