      Hello! YES! I once did a memory experiment with 20 people but forgot to press the ‘record’ button on the computer! So 20 people took part in my experiment which took about 1 hour and I had no idea how they performed on the task! What is worse is that I paid them to take part – £8 for one hour! Can you imagine how bad I felt? But it happens to everyone – I’m only human he he.

      BTW did you do the quiz to find out what sex your brain is?
