Do groups have better collective memories than individuals when it comes to problem-solving? Two University of North Georgia students are running a series of experiments to find out.
Junior psychology majors Jacob Henze and Laura Rodes are preparing to test collective problem solving versus individual problem solving using a box of sand. The purpose of their research is to better understand how people utilized maps to solve real-world problems and determine the best route to take to reach a destination.
They will present their findings at the Southeastern Psychological Association's 64th annual meeting March 6-9.
