Abstract: This study investigates the effects of caffeine on working memory in medical students. Furthermore, the study determines whether an effect of caffeine could be attributed to differences in the gender of participants and the time of day that the tests were taken. The study was based on the administration of 200mg of caffeine or placebo given to the participants and their results on verbal, auditory, and both verbal and auditory digit span tests were recorded and analyzed.
