Lifespan Cognition Lab

In the Lifespan Cognition Lab, we investigate how thinking changes across the lifespan: from preschool to old age. We are currently looking for children age 3-17 and adults age 50-99 to participate in a fun, paid psychology study that examines perspective-taking, judgment, decision-making, and executive function. We hope to use our research to develop tools to improve thinking and learning for individuals of all ages!

Adult participants and parents of child participants earn $25 for participating, and everyone who participates receives small gifts. We also reimburse travel expenses (e.g., parking, transit) up to $5. The study takes 45 minutes to an hour and a half and is designed to be fun for people of all ages--the tasks are hands-on and non-invasive.
