This study looks at how aging and stress affect memory and navigation. As people get older, they may have trouble remembering things and finding their way around, especially when stressed. Researchers want to understand why some older adults experience these issues more than others. Participants will be split into two groups: one experiencing stress, and the other not. Both groups will do a navigation task using virtual reality, which is like a video game, to see if stress makes planning harder. They will use brain scans and questionnaires to measure how stress affects memory and planning.

• Length of Study: Participants need to visit Georgia Tech for group sessions.
• Eligibility: Adults aged 65-80 who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents and fluent in English.
• Exclusions: Conditions like epilepsy, dementia, or a history of stroke will disqualify participation.
