DYSLEXIC AND NON-DYSLEXIC READERS NEEDED FOR AN EYE TRACKING STUDY!

 

My name is Zuri and I am a Psychology and Language Sciences student at UCL.  We are looking for dyslexic and non-dyslexic volunteers aged 18-40 years, to take part in a study examining how we understand written text.

During the session you will be asked to:

- Complete several tasks measuring general language skills.

- Read short extracts of text off a computer screen while your eye movements are recorded.

Participants must have:

- Native-level English proficiency (or spoken English for 15+ years),

- Normal or corrected-to-normal vision (with glasses or preferably contact lenses),

- No history of significant hearing loss or neurological disease.

Participants will be compensated for their time by receiving either £9/hour

OR 1 Credit/hour. We are unable to reimburse travel expenses.
