Thinking About Memory: How Confident Are You in Your Memory, and Does it Change With Age?

"Naturalistic Episodic Memory encoding: Participants will play short sessions of 3 board games with the researcher. The board games include Ludo, Snakes \& Ladders and Solitaire. Participants will play each boardgame for around 5 min. They will wear a head camera while playing the games.~Later participants will be tested on their memory of the naturalistic episodic memory task, a semantic memory task (memory of facts) and a perceptual task. Each task will consist of 2-3 sub-tasks of around 30 trials. These tasks will all take place on the computer and will take 30-40 minutes in total. In each trial participants will choose between two options. For example: Which of these two images is taken from your head camera? What colour piece did you use in 'snakes and ladders'?. After they choose their answer, they will report how confident they are in their choice. At the end of each task, they will be asked to report how well they think they performed on the task overall."
