Subject: Participants Needed for a Study on Mandarin Chinese

 
I hope this email finds you well. We are researchers at UiT The Arctic
University of Norway, University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa and University of
Edinburgh, working on bilingual language acquisition and processing.

We are currently looking for people to participate in our study about Mandarin
Chinese. Here are the details: 
 
About this study
All you need is a laptop/computer with a camera and internet to participate
and you can do the task anytime in the comfort of your home! You will
participate in two testing sessions. The first session (30 min) will involve
multiple choice questions and a speaking task in Mandarin Chinese. The second
session (30 min) will involve a listening task and an eye-tracking task in
Mandarin Chinese. We will send you a link to the second session one week after
you have completed this first session.

We are in particular need of second (additional) language learners of Mandarin
and Mandarin-English heritage speakers (been exposed to Mandarin Chinese from
birth (at home) but was raised in places where Mandarin Chinese is NOT the
dominant language of the society).

Requirements
To participate in the study, you must....
1. Understand basic Mandarin Chinese
2. Understand basic English
3. Live in a country where English is the main language of communication
(e.g., USA, Canada, UK) 
 
Compensation 
We will give you $25 or £25 worth of Amazon gift voucher as a compensation for
participating in this study. Compensation will be given to only those who have
completed both test sessions.
