Virtual Location Changes in Recall
Wordlist recall was investigated comparing participants with rapidly changing local contextual cues to those with relatively stable cues. The word lists were presented on a standard computer screen. The level of cue change was manipulated using a multi-user virtual environment in which one group of participants moved through the series of stimuli while participants in the second condition remained in one location. Participants viewing words with changing contextual cues recalled more words than those whose words were presented with an unchanging background (Stationary (M = 7.57, SD = 3.18), Changing (M = 10.42, SD = 2.82), F(1,26)=6.33, p = .02). The findings are congruent with traditional memory studies in which environmental cues were changed by presenting stimuli in different rooms for learning and recall

COVID-19 Medication Scams, Cognitive Decline, & the Elderly
Around the world, the elderly population continues to increase in numbers and financial access. With this growth, the potential for this aging population to be victimized has increased as well. The COVID-19 pandemic has provided scammers and thieves with an unprecedented opportunity to take advantage of the weak and defenseless. Older individuals have more pre-existing health conditions which increases their vulnerability to COVID-19. Age-related conditions such as cognitive decline affect scam awareness, decision-making, fear, and insecurities. These vulnerabilities have placed the elderly population at a higher risk of being victimized through scams and deception. These criminal acts of deceit can deprive the elderly of their livelihood, security, and future. Importantly, being aware of scams, having a simplistic knowledge of elderly cognition, implementing some precautionary measures, and knowing who to contact for assistance can help prevent elderly exploitation and many tragic situations
