E-mail this message to a friend Hello! My name is Kerry McCullough and I am recruiting participants for my linguistics dissertation research.

Description: Learn to describe common concepts in an alien language! During this experiment, you will see picture drawings presented on the screen and hear the word for the depicted item. You will then be asked to determine the correct word for each picture given multiple options and be prompted to provide the names for new items that follow the same language pattern. The experiment ends with a brief demographic survey.
Equipment:
Computer with stable internet access
Internet browser other than Google Chrome
