LABS offers participants feedback on their cognitive skills

The Sunshine Coast Mind and Neuroscience - Thompson Institute LABS project now offers helpful reports to participants about their cognitive (thinking) skills.

Participants are helping the Institute's researchers understand adolescent learning, attention, working memory, planning, information processing and impulses.

But it is also helpful for each participant to understand their own thinking skills, and each youth who has participated in the study four times now receives a report that is tailored for them.

The report tells each participant how well they are doing in each area of cognition, highlighting what they do well, and what areas in which they could perhaps improve accompanied by advice on how to work on those improvements.
