:: Which presentation style is better? ::
  Ralph Lengler, Andrew vande Moere
University of Sydney
  This pilot study is investigating how to create meaning with visual means. For this purpose you will be shown 2 presentations, one presented using Slideware (e.g. Powerpoint) and then 'Prezi', a new presentation technology which takes up the ideas of the 'zoomable user interface' and the 'infinite canvas'. If you don't understand those two terms, no worries, you will, when you have completed the study! It will take about 30 minutes to complete the experiment. The study is fun & it will probably improve your presentation skills as well!

  In this experiment stimuli consist of 2 two-digit Arabic numbers, which appear diagonally on the center of a white browser window. The pairs vary only in their numerical values but have constant physical black Arial font. The task will start with an instruction, which asks participants to indicate which number is larger, by pressing the up arrow-key with the middle finger and the down arrow-key with the index finger of the dominant hand. The experiment is preceded by a training session, which allows subjects to complete 12 trials to familiarize themselves with the comparison required and the timing of the task. The experiment consists of 360 trials in 2 parts with a self-paced break. Participants are asked to respond as quickly as possible but to take care to avoid errors. Each trial is ended with the participant’s response. The whole experiment will take about 20 minutes, but may be shorter or longer based on reaction times.

I am not only looking for people who have experienced these types of events, but everyone [male, female, young and old(er), happy and not so happy]. Depending on your own experiences, completing the survey may take between 10 minutes and 40minutes to complete. I have used a professional secure web-survey provider to ensure that all responses will be completely anonymous and neither email or IP addresses will be visible. The study has been approved by the Faculty Ethics Committee as being sensitive to the needs of study participants. The survey asks you to describe some personal experiences that you may, or may not have experienced. Some of the questions are of a sensitive/ intimate nature. Your answers will be treated in complete confidence and privacy. Nonetheless, if you feel uncomfortable answering any of the intimate questions please leave it blank and move on to the next section. It is hoped that the findings from the survey will offer valuable insight that might lead to the development of more effective intervention and prevention programmes for victims of sexual violence.

University of Michigan at Ann Arbor
  This is the second in a series of studies examining what everyday people think it means to be healthy. Though a number of well-being and quality of life measures exist, none of these have been developed by attending to and attempting to quantify the ideas of everyday people (laypeople). By measuring concepts of health as they are thought and spoken of by everyday people, my hope is to to better be able to predict individual experiences of health and health-related decisions. In addition, the measure that will be the end product of this study may have some clinical application, as it may serve to broaden and deepen health dialogues between patients and the health care providers they seek services from.

:: Evaluation of Person Interactions ::
  Susanne Quadflieg
New York University
  This experiment has ended. Here is a debriefing and description of what was done: "In our study, we presented participants with a series of photographs. Each photograph showed two people involved in an interaction. For instance, participants would see a person giving a gift to another, two people carrying boxes, a couple dancing and so on. In each picture, one of the two individuals was marked with a star (*). Participants were asked to focus on this target when making their judgments. For each picture, we asked participants to indicate whether the person seemed intelligent, likeable, animate, able to have emotions, and machine-like. We also asked participants to rate whether they would find “seeing a person acting like this” believable, eerie, and safe. At the end of the survey, we asked participants to complete a short personality questionnaire and to answer some demographic questions (age, gender, education, religion, nationality). We are interested in how ratings on the above dimensions may differ depending on whether a person is engaged in a mainly instrumental interaction (e.g., one person helping another with carrying boxes) or in a mainly social interaction (e.g., one person engaging in a chat with another), and whether differences (if any) are influenced by a perceiver’s personality and demographic background." The instructions were: "You will be asked to look at a series of person interactions and to evaluate each interaction according to several dimensions (e.g., how safe, intelligent, likeable etc. a target person seems to you). At the end of the study, we will ask you to provide some personality information (e.g., whether you consider yourself calm, extraverted etc.) and demographic information (e.g., your age, gender, nationality). Participation will take you about 30 min. "
This experiment has ended. Debriefing available.

:: Where’s My Mind? A Mobile App Study for Android Phone Users ::
  Jessica R. Andrews-Hanna & Joanna J. Arch
University of Colorado, Boulder
  Do you ever wonder what you’re thinking about? Do you ever find yourself lost in thought? Do your thoughts make you feel inspired? Anxious? Happy? Do you wish you could gain a better sense of your thoughts and see how they compare to others’? Welcome to Where’s My Mind?, an app that helps you answer these questions by allowing you to track your thoughts at random moments throughout the day. By using this app, you will also help make possible the development of a large international database of internal thinking. This database will help foster important future scientific research. How does this app work? This app is divided into 4 parts. Each part is described below. • Part 1 will ask some basic questions about you (such as the country you live in), and when you wake up and go to bed (which tells the app when to track your thoughts). This part will take about 3 minutes. • Part 2 will ask you questions about your beliefs, feelings, and goals. This part will take about 3-5 minutes. • Part 3 will help you track your thoughts over multiple days. The app will send a notification to your device at 4 random times each day during waking hours, helping you to record the nature of your thoughts and activities immediately prior to receiving the notification. Responding to a notification takes only 1-2 minutes. • Part 4. After responding to 40 notifications, you will have the opportunity to view your thought report and compare your thoughts to those of other users. You can choose to see graphs displaying what kinds of things you typically think about, whether you find your thoughts to be helpful or unhelpful, how often your thoughts are focused on-task versus off-task, and more! Your graphs will be updated as you continue to use the app and as the database grows.

The study aim is to explore how the speed and content of our thoughts may impact on how we interpret information and how we feel. It may be that specific psychological difficulties, like anxiety and mania, relate to these thought processes which are associated with tendencies to view the world in a particular, perhaps unhelpful, way. By understanding the impact of these processes we may better understand how to intervene to help people experiencing certain psychological difficulties.

  Annabel Chan, Gerard Kennedy
Victoria University, Australia
  There has been quite a lot of research conducted on women's body image and we have a reasonable understanding of the types of factors that impact on women's body image and that ultimately lead to disorders like Anorexia and Bulimia Nervosa. However, we know very little about men's body image and the factors that impinge on the way males think about their bodies. Consequently we also know very little about how this impacts on men's health. Do you want to do something about it? If so, you are invited to take part in a research project that will focus exclusively on men's body image. Previous research has highlighted the impact of men's physical attributes on body image and how men perceive their own body. The purpose of this study is to further explore the relationship between physical qualities of men, their body image and self-esteem, using an Internet sample. All men above the age of 18, who have at least basic literacy in English, are invited to participate in this study. If possible, please have a tape measure ready. The questionnaire consists of 62 mostly multiple-choice questions and should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Your responses will remain anonymous and no identifying information will be collected. You are free to withdraw from this study at any time.
