Trial summary

Learning deficits are frequent in individuals with Parkinson's Disease. Clear feedback is integral because through feedback individuals know whether they should stick with an action that they have been doing (if the feedback is positive), or change their course of action (if the feedback is negative).

About this study

Learning deficits are frequent in individuals with Parkinson's Disease. Clear feedback is integral because through feedback individuals know whether they should stick with an action that they have been doing (if the feedback is positive), or change their course of action (if the feedback is negative). Learning though immediate feedback has been shown to be depended on the brain chemical dopamine that is disrupted in individuals with Parkinson's Disease. During learning, feedback can also be presented after a delay. The investigators propose that learning through delayed feedback will lead to greater learning in individuals with Parkinson's Disease, since learning through delayed feedback does not rely on dopamine. During the proposed paradigm, participants with Parkinson's Disease complete a multiple-choice test. After making their selection on the multiple-choice test, they either see feedback immediately or are given feedback 25 minute later after reviewing their selection on the multiple-choice test. The investigators hypothesize that participants will learn better when they are provided with delayed feedback.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parkinson Disease, run by Kessler Foundation at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percent correct responses will be collected through the computer software (time frame: testing lasts 60 minutes and completed in 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Sep 2025.
