Project Title: I Remember That!
Project Abstract:
I did this experiment to test the memory for younger and older boys and girls.
Ithought that the older groups of girls would have a better memory of objects
and numbers than the rest of the groups. I did this by gathering a large group
of volunteers and gave them two minutes to memorize 15 objects that I set up.
Then I made them write down all the objects they remebered. For the number test,
I said numbers aloud and the volunteers had to repeat after me. I tested people from
the age groups, 6-7, 10-11, and 13-14. My results were that the boys had a better
memory than the girls.
