Sabrina Guye

Sabrina Guye received the Ph.D. degree in psychology from the University of Zurich, Switzerland. During her predoctoral and postdoctoral research at the University Research Priority Program Dynamics of Healthy Aging she investigated the influence of lab-based digital interventions (e.g., cognitive training) and real-life experiences (e.g., social or physical activity) on cognitive health. More specifically, she focused on the overall benefits of digital cognitive training interventions in older age in terms of training effects and scope of transfer, but also on individual differences factors predicting the effectiveness of cognitive training (e.g., personality, cognition-related beliefs). In addition, she investigated the relationship between an engaged lifestyle, functional ability in everyday life, and lab-based measures of cognitive functioning in healthy older adults. During her Ph.D., she was a fellow of LIFE (International Max Planck Research School of the Life Course).
