Invitation to Participate in a Research Project at UMD College of Information

We are researchers from the College of Information at the University of Maryland, College Park. Our ongoing research investigates how today’s younger generations navigate challenging aspects of daily interpersonal communication, with or without AI support. We invite individuals who are (a) based in the United States, (b) native English speakers, (c) between 20 and 35 years old, and (d) pursuing or have completed a bachelor’s degree to participate.

Participants will be tasked to prepare communication scripts for 15 challenging interpersonal scenarios on 15 days: one scenario per day for the first 14 successive days, and a final scenario one week later. Daily computer access is required.

Participants who complete all study activities will receive a $111 Tango Gift Card. If you are interested in signing up for this study, please visit our project website (https://sites.google.com/umd.edu/project-communication-prep/home), where you will find the sign-up survey link and contact information for any questions.
