Paid study for Persian/Mandarin/Russian
Do you speak Mandarin Chinese, Persian/Farsi, or Russian,
either natively or as a learner? The University of Maryland Center for Advanced
Study of Language is recruiting advanced leaners and native speakers of these
languages to participate in a language study. The goal of the project is to
identify which aspects of these languages speakers at your proficiency level
typically already know, and which aspects they still have difficulty with.
For the study, you will be asked to take several tests
looking at your language abilities. All tests will be remotely administered,
meaning you can take them at a time and location of your convenience.
For full participation, you will earn $40. Learners
will also receive official proficiency scores with a certificate.
To participate, you must be:
An advanced learner (at least four semesters of post-high
school foreign language study) of either Persian, Mandarin, or Russian and be a
native speaker of English
OR
A native speaker of Persian, Mandarin, or Russian (must be
able to read in English).
