My name is Ava Omidi, I am an MA student in Spanish Linguistics at Western University in London,Canada, and I am currently looking for adult participants who would fit in any of the following three categories to take part in a study I am conducting for my MA thesis:
1) L1 Peninsular Spanish speakers from Madrid, Castilla y León or Castilla-La Mancha
2) L1 Persian-L2 English-L3 Spanish OR L1 Persian-L2 Spanish (must speak no additional languages)
3) L1 Persian-L2 English-L3 French OR L1 Persian-L2 French (must speak no additional languages)
If you agree to participate, you will receive an invitation to meet individually with the researcher for a 45-minute session online via Zoom to complete four tasks in which you will: 1. answer questions about your language background, language use, proficiency, and attitudes on Qualtrics (maximum 10 minutes); 2. take an English proficiency test on Qualtrics (maximum 15 minutes); 3. orally mark some sentences as correct or incorrect in Spanish OR French (maximum 10 minutes); 4. orally translate some phrases from Persian (if your first language is Persian) or English (if your first language is Spanish) into Spanish OR French (maximum 10 minutes). The tasks will be administered through Power Point slides (the researcher will share her computer screen with you).
Your participation will be greatly appreciated. Please contact me for any questions or concerns you may have.
