Hi! Iâm an apprentice at a vocational school in Bern. For my final project (the so-called Vertiefungsarbeit),* *Iâm looking for people in the Bern region who would like to help with an experiment about memory. There are no known health risks.
What is it about?
Iâm testing the method of loci (memory palace) and a memory game, and whether a physical mini house that I built myself can help people memorize things.
What happens?
- You read the details first and fill out a short survey.
- Part 1: memory game with cards
- Part 2: method of loci
- Part 3: method of loci with my mini house (you can touch materials, and there are scents)
I use a small EEG headband (Muse 2) during parts 2 and 3. The session is recorded on my phone, only with your consent, and only used for my project.
Details
- Duration: about 45-60 minutes, with breaks
- Date: Weeks 44-47
- Location: In a room at my office (weâll agree on a time privately)
- Language: The experiment, the survey and all documents are in German
- Voluntary, and you can stop at any time
- Youâll get your personal result afterwards. Not right after the experiment but I will definitely get back to you to send the result.
- Everyone is welcome: any age, gender, or background. No prior experience needed!
âïž: I have no money to give out. It's best suited for people who are interested in helping and the experience of it.
âïž: If you would like to review the official information sheet (Informationblatt/EinwilligungserklĂ€rung) before deciding, feel free to DM me and I will gladly send it to you.
