In our everyday lives, our brain is constantly making predictions that we are not even consciously aware of. What is the weather likely to be like today? Will the bread rolls at the bakery taste good today or will they be dry again? Which direction might a car be coming from when I want to cross this street? Normally you have enough time to make these predictions - but in dangerous situations you sometimes have to act very quickly. Suppose a lion is standing in front of you - from which direction could it attack?
Find out how we use video game experiments in psychological research to investigate such predictions. And find out how they can be used to help children and young people who are often very frightened.
In a playful 2D computer experiment, you go into the jungle and have to fend off dangerous predators. Try to collect the most points and beat the high score!
We look forward to your visit!
For children, teenagers and adults.
