I accept ideas for final Thesis: Let's arrange for an argument (among those I can handle), and the experimental paradigm, then you will collect the data (with my assistence), I will run data analysis (if you can't do it) and, in the end, we will discuss the outcomes. Contact me if that would be of interest for you.
