Memory in Parkinson’s disease and healthy individuals

We are looking for participants to take part in an online memory study examining forgetting at different time delays (from minutes to days) in people with Parkinson’s disease and healthy individuals.  You will be asked to complete questionnaires, memory tasks and other computerized thinking tasks similar to online games. This study involves 4 online sessions over 10 days for a total of 3 to 3.5 hours (15 to 90 min per session).

Eligible participants must:

  • Be fluent in English
  • Have internet access and a desktop or laptop computer
  • Have no history of psychiatric or neurological illness/condition (other than Parkinson’s disease)
  • Any age if you have Parkinson’s disease, or be 18-35 or 45-years old and older if you do not have Parkinson’s disease (healthy group).

You will receive an e-gift card of your choosing for every session completed (Choices: Amazon, PC Optimum, Tim Hortons, Starbucks, Indigo, Bed Bath & Beyond, or Best Buy)
