| :: | Perception of Consensus in Argumentative Debates :: | ||||||
| Guillaume Cabanac University of Toulouse (France) |

| The purpose of this experiment is to learn more about human perception of consensus in argumentative discussions. As a computer scientist, I intend to measure how close a "social validation" algorithm is from human perception of consensus.
This study involves identifying and synthesizing opinions in argumentative debates. Completing the experiment should take around 30-40 minutes. You will be given a login and password, so you may interrupt the experiment at any time and come back later to finish it.
Your participation will contribute to improve debates summarization algorithms, which are useful for reducing readers' cognitive load.
In order to participate in this experiment you will need the free Java Runtime Environment (a link is provided). |

| Joshua Hartshorne Harvard University |
|||||||
| 10 Minutes. In this experiment, we are testing a relatively new hypothesis about how, on the brain system level, reading takes place. Although reading is an important topic that has been studied for many decades, there are still many questions about how people learn to read. One potential application of our research is the development of new methods of reading instruction for people with dyslexia. |
