Dr. Cervantes' Cognition Lab
ABOUT US
The cognition lab examines human cognition, including perception, memory, creativity, and learning. In particular, we investigate factors that influence memory accuracy and vulnerability to false memories; aging; the role of memory in creativity; as well as the scholarship of teaching and learning. Further research focuses on development of academic engagement support for first-generation college students.
Most research takes place on campus with GSU students, faculty and staff. Community participation is welcomed and aging research may take place off-site. If you are a student interested in learning the research process or participating in a research study, we encourage you to contact our lab! We are located on the third floor of the D building at Governors State University. Address: 1 University Pkwy, University Park, IL 60484. Email: gsucognitionlab@gmail.com
