Prospective memory is an important cognitive function that is vulnerable to stress. However, research on the relationship between stress and prospective memory has focused overwhelming on European or North American populations. Using questionnaires, lab-based tasks, and naturalistic assessments, this PhD will examine the impact of stress on prospective memory in three populations affected by humanitarian crises, with a control population in Germany. |
