Capping

• Brush participant scalp with stiff brush
• NuPrep gel can clean each electrode site after cap is velcroed

Cleaning

• Sanitize the comb/brush after every use: put them in the plastic tub with warm water + 1 Tablespoon dish soap + 1 Tablespoon vinegar (under the sink). Let sit for ~1 hour before rinsing and drying. (A good time to do this is while the participant is in the booth).
• Keep connector away from water - use a ziplock bag around the connector and hook it above the paper towel dispenser.

Data Analysis
