Games Research U of A

Looking for participants for the research study: Serious Games for Engagement and Positive Emotions during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The University of Alberta is conducting a study to assess if computer games designed for older adults make them feel they are involved in enjoyable, meaningful activities during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study is seeking participants aged 65 and above across Canada who have their own device (Android tablet or computer) and an internet connection and who want to play the games for 12 weeks. 

If you want to know more about the study or you want to participate, send an email to Melika Torabgar: torabgar@ualberta.ca.
