Subject: Call for Participants: Native English Speakers that Play Video Games


I am a PhD student at the University of Barcelona studying how
non-native speakers develop English fluency through gaming. I am now
looking for native English speakers as a baseline for comparison for
an asynchronous online study.
Requirements:
- Native English speaker
- Age 18+
- Experience playing or having played any video game
What's involved:
- 5 short monologue speaking tasks
- Chat with our conversational agent
- Total time: approximately 5 minutes
The study uses free and open-source software, with data stored on
private servers (including conversational agent). No third party
services or APIs.

If you have any questions, please contact me at emma.caputo at ub.edu.
Thank you for your consideration.
Best,
