Flow Chart of Participants and dropouts over the three assessments for the questionnaire on SoSci Survey as well as the online-based cognitive tasks with MyBrainTraining. From the 220 registered participants, 196 took part in at least one measurement time point and completed at least one task. As the questionnaire and the cognitive tasks could be completed independently, the number of participants differs for the questionnaire and cognitive tasks across time points. As such, 140 participants in the first assessment finished the questionnaire as well as the cognitive tasks (94 females). The age of this initial sample ranged from 20 to 77 years (meanage = 43.53, SDage = 15.94). In the second assessment 55 participants completed both the questionnaire and the cognitive tasks (40 females, meanage = 44.05, SDage = 17.05). In the third assessment, 59 participants finished both tasks (40 females, meanage = 44.90, SDage = 16.60). Overall, 37 participants completed all three assessments. The analyzed sample of 51 participants who finished both assessments in T1 and T3 included 12 students, 11 retirees and 28 employed participants.
