Volunteers Needed for a Study of Brain Injury and Memory Rehabilitation
RSVP: Matthew 520-621-5721
Description: The Aging and Cognition Laboratory in the Department of Psychology at the University of Arizona is currently recruiting volunteers for a study of brain injury and memory rehabilitation.
Volunteers must:
• be at least 18 years old, and
• have sustained a brain injury.
The research project requires meeting with a researcher from the Aging and Cognition Laboratory for multiple sessions over the course of several weeks. The meetings may take place either at the Aging and Cognition Laboratory or at the participant’s place of residence. Each session will take approximately 1 to 2 hours to complete. Participants will undertake paper-and-pencil and computerized tests of behavioral and cognitive functioning (i.e. attention, memory, language, etc). The study does not involve medications or invasive procedures.
Participants may obtain feedback about their results. Matthew is willing to travel to Phoenix and Flagstaff with certain restrictions and scheduling to obtain information for the study.
