Abstract
This study explores the effects of same-generation (younger adult or older adult groups) and intergenerational (mixed ages) collaboration on emotional memory. Participants independently study emotional content, collaborate after 48 hours, and then complete a final individual memory test to reveal the effects of the earlier collaboration on memory.
