BL Behavioral Learning Across Computer Based Cognitive Paradigms: an Online study

We investigate how people learn through computer-based tasks, and how learning speed and performance vary between individuals and relate to sleep and stress.

The study aims to examine learning and performance across seven computer-based cognitive tasks assessing memory, attention, motor skills and decision-making. We will measure how performance changes over repeated trials and estimate individual learning rates. We will also investigate whether differences in learning and performance are associated with factors such as age, sleep, stress, anxiety and previous experience with computer games. The results will provide reference data for the use of these tasks in future research on neuroplasticity.
