1. Florian Wolf, Participants for On-line Reading Study

Hello,

My name is Florian Wolf; I am a graduate student in Ted Gibson's lab,
Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, MIT.

I am looking for participants for a reading study. The study is
available online, at

http://web.mit.edu/fwolf/www/sentence-ranking-experiment/

The study aims to investigate how people determine the structure of
written texts; specifically, the goal is to investigate how people
determine which parts of a text are important and which are less
important.

It would be great if some of you could participate in my study; the
only requirement is that participants should be native speakers of
English (English should be the first language you learned as a child).

Please feel free to forward this email to anyone who might be
interested.

Thank you very much in advance for your valuable time,

Florian Wolf
