exclusionary criteria such as left handedness, history of head injury with loss of consciousness >10 minutes, concussion, epilepsy, electroshock therapy, use of current psychotropic medications, and active suicidal potential necessitating immediate treatment. Individuals receiving current psychotherapy were not excluded. Participants not meeting exclusionary criteria by this screen were invited for an intake interview. All participants accepted into the study were required to be strongly right handed (a score of greater than 35 on the 39 point scale of Chapman & Chapman, 1987). Figure 1 provides a detailed flow chart summarizing study recruitment across a four year period.
