mind. When a red arrow flashes on the screen, the participant must recall the arrow that was flashed N-back. Trials will include 0-back, 1-back, 2-back and 3-back.

Instructions

0-back: In this experiment, you will see an image of four arrows on the screen. The directions of

the arrows are up, down, left and right.

When an arrow flashes, press the corresponding arrow on the number keypad. The 8 key is up, the 2 key is down, the 4 key is left, and the 6 key is right. Respond as quickly and accurately as possible.

Any Questions?

1-3 back: In this task, you will need to remember a previous arrow stimulus that was shown on

the screen. Arrows will randomly flash green. Keep the direction of these arrows in mind. When a red arrow flashes, press the response key for the same arrow that occurred one before the red arrow. Only respond after you see a red arrow flash. You do not need to remember the direction of the red arrow. Respond as quickly and accurately as possible.
