ATAROS PROJECT by U of W PHONETICS LAB

ATAROS Project ataros@uw.edu

Hello Seattle-area Eagles
We're part of a research team working on a linguistics study at the University of Washington Phonetics Lab.  We're looking for native English-speakers from the Northwest, and we'd like to cover a wide range of ages and neighborhoods.  We've had good response from students and staff on campus, but we also need people who aren't necessarily affiliated with the university, particularly people over 30 and especially men.  Would you be willing to help us spread the word by forwarding this message to your members and/or posting the attached flyer where they might see it? 

Northwest English Speakers Needed:
Are you a native English speaker who was raised in Washington, Oregon, or Idaho? Researchers in the UW Linguistics Department are conducting a study about the speech of people from the Pacific Northwest. Northwesterners age 18-75 with no history of speech or hearing deficits are eligible. Participants will be audio-recorded while they complete short tasks about imaginary situations in pairs or small groups. Each participant will receive $10 for a short session (about 1 hour), $15 for a medium session (about 90 minutes), or $20 for a longer session (about 2 hours). If you are interested, email us at ataros@uw.edu or call (206) 543-9027. If you know of others who might be interested, please forward this message to them. Note that we cannot guarantee the confidentiality of email correspondence.

Thank you,
Valerie Freeman & Heather Morrison
Research Assistants
