Campbell Neurocognitive Aging Lab
Influence of Contextual Familiarity - 17-30 and 65-80 years of age
The purpose of this research project is to gain a better understanding of the ways in which one’s previous experience with a spatial location influences their perception, and how this may change across the lifespan. Participants must be fluent in English, have normal or corrected-to-normal vision, have no history of memory impairment (e.g., dementia, Alzheimer's), and have lived in the Niagara region for at least 2 years.
Testing sessions will be conducted in single sessions (1 hour) using your home computer or laptop.
You will be provided an online link to the task and will complete a series of computer tasks and questionnaires. You will have to type your responses.
