If you get motion sick in cars, would you participate in a medical test if you were to get paid?

And if so, how much would you expect to get paid?

I'm not asking for volunteers right now; just trying to figure out how willingly people would volunteer and how much a test would cost.

The test would take one hour. And while you'd probably be fine, there is some possibility that you would get a little sick.

Thanks for responding, whether yes or no.

    i would if it was more physical and not towards experimental medicine. i was in a study once, but i didnt take the medicine. I had my wisdom tooth taken out. they gave me medicine to bring home since they cant keep me there. i went home and threw it away. when asked in a follow up, i said i took it and it relieved the pain, but some instances it didnt work so i took an advil and that helped. i said that because i didnt want to false information to get to the public. we would end up having all these people take medicine that was supposedly proven to work but didnt. I would probably want at least 100 dollars to be a ginea pig. Even if it was 200 buxx, and some people only make like 60 buxx a day after taxes, i dont think people want to be a ginea pig. so, at least 100 would be fine for me, given that its only an hour. because look on the other side. i make between 40 to 60 an hour. so, why bother being a ginea pig unless its more then that? whats the average income in that area?
