Joshua Hartshorne

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.

The purpose of the proposed study is to examine guilt associated with traumatic events. During the assessment process, you will be asked to complete several measures by providing information about yourself, including some questions pertaining to traumatic events that may have occurred in your life. Questions concerning traumatic events will ask about the age it occurred, how often it occurred, if your life was threatened, and if you have any feelings of guilt associated with that traumatic event. Examples of the types of trauma that may have been experienced include child sexual and physical abuse, adult sexual and physical abuse, natural disasters, serious accident or illness, and murder of a friend or family member.

An Internet Study: The relationships between men's self-reported physical attributes, body image, self-esteem and internet dating
:: |
| |
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.

Sequential decision-making under uncertainty in a video game
:: |
| |
Paul Schrater, Daniel Acuna
Department of Psychology, University of Minnesotaonl |
| |
If you agree to be in this study, we would ask you to do the following things: play games that involve decisions over uncertain rewarding alternatives.
You will be asked to simultaneously play several virtual slot machines that give you points in a random fashion (much like simultaneously playing several real slot machines in a casino where you do not know which machine is the best).
For each game, you will have the opportunity to pull the levers a randomly limited number of times. This is, 2 out of 100 pulls may randomly stop the current game, making you collect the points, and playing the next game. This does not mean that the probability of ending the game increases over time, but it stays fixed. For example, if you survived the pull number 4, you need to think that you have to have survived the first, second, and third pull, each of which has a 2% probability of stopping the current game.
You will be asked to play 48 of these games separated into 4 stages, each of which will have different number of machines and different payoff behaviors. Keep in mind that each set of games is different for each subject. Each game typically involves 1.5 minutes of playing, but you can take as much time as you want.
Moreover, you can play each game any time you want, spaced over a period of time. We would not be surprised if you play either all the games consecutively or just one per day. We expect solving all games would take 60 min of game play, but again, you can take as much time as you want.

Discover your strengths. Become happier. Win money.
:: |
| |
Warren Davies
University of East London |
| |
The experiment involves identifying your personal strengths using an online questionnaire, and then using some of these strengths in new and different ways for one week, to see if this has any effect on how you feel. In similar studies done in the past, people became happier and less depressed when doing this, and I expect the same to happen in this experiment. You will be sent all the instructions and all the questionnaires you need by email, which you will complete and email back to me. Upon completion of the experiment in 1 week, you will be entered into a prize draw to win £30.
What you are required to commit to:
1. Complete some questionnaires taking around 1 hour
2. Use your personal strengths in different ways over a period of 1 week (full instructions will be given for this)
3. Complete some questionnaires at the end of the 1 week period, taking around 20 minutes
4. Complete some follow up questionnaires in 1 month, taking 10-15 minutes
What you will gain:
1. You will be entered into a prize draw to win £30
2. Knowledge of your personal strengths
3. In previous experiments in this area, people were found to be happier, less depressed, and experience more positive emotions
