In Malaysia, a country with one of the largest Muslim populations, the idea of being a househusband in Malaysia is not widely accepted. While research has been done on Muslim attitudes towards women's issues, gender equality, and gender justice, research on the experiences of men and Muslim attitudes towards househusbands are less extensive. The role of househusband raises questions about he feels as a Muslim man in relation to his family and broader Muslim society. The role of househusband is a vantage point through which one can study the experiences of men who do not subscribe to traditional ideals. My research questions are as follows: How do Muslim househusbands in Malaysia generally perceive their role and social position? How do married Muslim men view househusbands?

However, the results of this study may be used to develop novel tools for the treatment of psychiatric mood-disorders that involve a detriment in cognitive control. The study requires approximately 15 hours of participation across five sessions. In the first session, you will do a computerized task and complete questionnaires about your mental health and personality. Based on your task performance, you may advance to the next stage of the experiment. In the next sessions, your brain activity will be recorded using electroencephalography (EEG), sensors on your scalp, and with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Finally, you will receive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) during performance of a memory task.
