If you're interested in hearing more about this project,
@mattdjohnston.bsky.social will be presenting the poster at the Age & Cognition conference next week in Pavia, Italy. Come meet us there to chat statistical learning!
The next talk is actually mine (@kwolfe.bsky.social)! I discussed a novel task made to study the relationship of statistical learning and executive functions in older age, a Carnegie-funded project.

An excellent start to the week: our latest paper on collaborative learning has been published! In the study, we used the Map Task to assess younger and older adults' task performance and short- and long-term recall of the routes they described and followed....🧵

Collaborative learning in older age and the role of familiarity: evidence from the map task
