Multipic is a newly developed database of naming norms and familiarity
scores of 500 coloured pictures of concrete everyday objects; this is
currently provided in over 30 different languages/language varieties
from around the world, ensuring linguistic and cultural diversity, and
making it the first dataset to provide reliable translation
equivalents across such a variety of languages. More details can be
found here:
https://research.reading.ac.uk/christos-lab/the-multilingual-picture-dataset-multipic/
We are currently expanding Multpic to include norms in standard
Romanian. We are therefore looking for speakers of Romanian to help us
by providing names to these pictures. The experiment is administered
online and lasts for about one hour, and breaks are inserted during
the test at every 50 trials. You will be rewarded with a £10 Amazon
voucher for your participation. The full Information Sheet (in
Romanian) can be found here:
https://research.reading.ac.uk/christos-lab/multipic-information-sheet-romanian/
If you are interested in participating, please use this form to enter
your details, and we will get back to you:
https://forms.office.com/e/rSJtwHXjsG
We would be greateful if you could circulate this to any interested
parties, as we need a sustantial sample to complete this norming.
