The Mood Disorders Laboratory is looking for men and women 22 years and older who are currently depressed to participate in a study of mood and attention. If you have been feeling down, sad, depressed, or unmotivated you may qualify to participate.

Participants will be paid up to $75, depending on the length of your session (this study usually lasts 2 - 3 hours). A screening interview and in-person appointment in our laboratory are required.

If you are interested in participating, please contact the Mood Disorders Laboratory at (512) 475-6817 or at MDL@psy.utexas.edu to set up a screening interview.

Please note that the MDL is unable to provide immediate assistance or advice to individuals about their depression, nor to family members or friends of individuals with depression. This web site was primarily created to provide background information about research conducted at the MDL. If you are in need of immediate assistance, please call your health care provider. If it is an emergency, please call 911 (in the U.S.) or go to a hospital emergency room.
