cognitive tools for an academic research
cognitive tools for an academic research
I have recently come across your site, and I believe that some of your cognitive tools would be very useful for my PhD research. My work involves a research population of about 300 students and I need to be able to record their test scores.
Would it be possible for me to use your tools?
In addition, I would appreciate if you could inform me of any other academic research you are aware of that has used your tools.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Sincerely,
Orna

Orna,
I have a website http://brainturk.com that has a few tasks that I have implemented . If you want to use that along with cognitive fun I will be glad to help you out in getting the data and will be willing to implement any tasks that are missing.
Send me an email ( check out the contact tab on brainturk website)

Orna,
Obviously every cognitive "tool" here is free. To say every task here is a "tool" though is wrong, however. Only one game here the dual n-back, has been previously scientifically proven to be of any value in transfer across domains. The research I make reference to is thus->

I don't see why there has to be any transfer just by calling them "tools". As I understand, some of them are widely used tests in psychology.
Anyway, cogfun is a bit rare in this forum. He hasn't written anything for ... two years?

No, DNB has not been "proven" by any reasonable and valuable measure of "scientific proof" to transfer to anything. To date, it is at best a case of near-transfer to tasks of similar visual-perceptual characteristics.
