Summary
This study looks at how getting older and feeling stressed can change the way we remember places and find our way around. Researchers will have 85 adults aged 65 to 80 do a virtual navigation task while their brains are scanned. Some participants will be put under mild stress to see if it makes them rely on habits instead of flexible thinking.
