Memory for general knowledge information

Researchers: 
Radka Jersakova and Richard Allen, University of Leeds
Study Description: 

This study aims to pilot a set of general knowledge questions to use in further research. We are interested in finding out how easy or hard they are (ie how likely people are to know the answer) as well as find out the extent to which they elicit an emotional reaction.

Eyewitness Testimony

Researchers: 
Lauren Hewitt and Fiona Gabbert, Curtin University
Study Description: 

This research will investigate how people evaluate eyewitness testimony. The findings of the research are important for the justice system and may help us better understand how jurors make decisions.

Social Cognition in Massively Multiplayer Video Games

Researchers: 
Adam Engstrom, Bradley Franks, and Caroline Howarth, London School Economics and Political Science
Study Description: 

I'm looking for two participants to play a video game (Spiral Knights) with each other while I record the screen and audio. During the game, the participants will narrate what happens in the game. The whole thing takes about an hour, and there is a short (30-45 minute) follow-up interview about a week later. The participants should be in different rooms, out of ear shot of each other, and I will provide links to the recording software which is a 30-day free trial and the game which is free-to-play (both below) so there are no costs to participating. If anyone is interested, they can contact me through my email at: spiralknightsstudy@gmail.com. At the moment, there is no compensation for participating in the study.

Remembering the Past

Researchers: 
Sara Robertson & Tim Wildschut, University of Southampton
Study Description: 

How nostalgic are you? Follow the link below to test your nostalgia proneness. Our research suggests that some individuals are more inclined to conjure this bittersweet emotion, and we are interested in how this might relate to people’s everyday feelings and behaviours. If you choose to participate, you will also be invited to submit a nostalgic memory of your own. The whole study should take between 20 and 30 minutes.
