Mandarin Chinese Study
Researchers from the University of Maryland are looking for native speakers of Mandarin Chinese for a paid language study. The study involves making judgments about the pronunciation of a set of Mandarin words produced by English speakers. Participants may also be asked to provide background information about themselves.
Payment is $10/hour for a 45-60 minute session. The experiment will take place at the Maryland Neuroimaging Center (MNC) http://www.mnc.umd.edu/aboutus/directions right next to campus. All interested individuals will be asked about their language background before participation. Not all native Mandarin speakers may be eligible.
If you are interested in participating, please email Ryan Corbett at rcorbett@umd.edu
