Abstract The purpose of this project is to determine how different levels of dehydration affect people's accuracy and speed in completing varying cognitive function tests. If the hypothesis is correct (and the subjects' accuracy rates and speeds decrease as their dehydration increases), my experiment will educate people who do not drink enough water about the dangers of being dehydrated.
