Summary

The study aims to better understand motivation and value-based decision-making in Parkinson's patients through neurophysiology using Medtronic's Percept DBS device. By combining behavioral tasks with neural recordings, the study seeks to uncover how DBS affects motivation, particularly in relation to effort, reward, and timing.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease
  • Deep Brain Stimulation
  • Motivation

Interventions

OTHER

Stimulation on

Stimulation from Percept DBS will be on while the patient is playing a decision-making game on a computer-based application.

OTHER

Stimulation off

Stimulation from Percept DBS will be off while the patient is playing a decision-making game on a computer-based application.

BEHAVIORAL

Decision Making Task

Patients will be playing a decision making task through a computer-based application.
