[Academic] Help develop a new cognitive test battery – reasoning, memory, processing speed, and more (Ages 6–80, worldwide)

https://jaroslavtocik.cz/reasoning/

Hi everyone! I’m a psychologist developing a free online battery of cognitive tests covering fluid reasoning, visuospatial abilities, working memory, processing speed, and learning and memory.
I’m currently collecting data to evaluate item difficulty, improve the tests, and eventually develop normative scores.
Each test takes approximately 5–15 minutes, and you can complete just one or as many as you like. No registration is required, and you can compare your performance with other participants.
I’m especially looking for people from all ability levels and backgrounds, not just those who regularly take IQ tests. Every response is valuable, regardless of performance.
Constructive feedback on the tasks is also very welcome. Thank you for contributing!

[Academic] Survey on victims/survivors lived experience with individuals with high psychopathic traits (worldwide, women, men, gender-diverse, 18+, can read and write in English). Link here: https://lakeheadhbs.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bKEq1vOVdBJMrjw

The Mental Health, Wellbeing and Lived Experiences Study

Theresia Bedard, a PhD candidate at Lakehead University that is working with Dr. Beth Visser, is seeking participants for her dissertation project.

In this study we are examining the lived experiences of people who have experience or victimization from an individual with high psychopathic traits. We are seeking anyone that has this lived experience, whether the perpetrator was or is a spouse, family member, partner, co-worker, friend, acquaintance, neighbor or stranger. We are seeking the lived experiences of men, women, and gender-diverse individuals to share your story.

Our research consists of two studies. In the first study, you will complete questionnaires related to your victimization experience from the individual with high psychopathic traits, the potential warning signs, victimization history (e.g., prior physical or sexual abuse), and the impact the experience had on you. Once you finish the survey, you will be invited to participate in the second study (optional), which will consist of 12 questions requiring a written response regarding your lived experience with the individual with high psychopathic traits. If you decide to participate in study 2, please be aware that you will be required to provide us with your email to access it, and you may wish to use an email account that only you have access to.

Please be advised that whether you choose to participate in the study, withdraw, or skip questions you do not want to answer, that you acknowledge that answering some of these questions may be emotionally taxing on you. Despite the potential for an emotional toll the survey questions have, you may find the process of sharing your experience is therapeutic for you. In addition to the resources we provide, you may want to consider following-up with a counsellor for further support.

You are also encouraged to have your own snacks and drinks while you take the survey, and be aware that they are estimated to take 45 minutes to complete.
