It looks like I might have done something really stupid and lost some important data. And possibly failed to collect a necessary condition previously, too. So, I might need to collect pilot data again over the next couple days.

if anyone is interested in spending ~5 min in the next day or two telling me which of various items are tall/short, let ( Read more... )

I might need more pilot subjects tomorrow today -- people who are willing to look at a picture or two and answer 1 or 2 questions about them. Should take 1-5 minutes. If anyone feels like helping out, let me know. Ideally, I'd like people who haven't done any of my pimwit studies (things I've sent out in the past few months), but if you have and ( Read more... )

Thanks so much to everyone who already helped with the pilot study -- and thanks to everyone who volunteered but that I didn't send anything to. I have the data I need for my talk tomorrow, but I may still need more data later, and I'll let you know. I'm using that particular pilot condition to make a particularly obscure (but important) little ( Read more... )

I will probably need some pilot subjects sometime very soon to look at a picture and answer two quick questions about it. (If you've already been a subject, you can do it again, and I swear the answering method should be less painful this time.) Anyone interested?

I just remembered I have a couple slides to help explain my most recent line of research. Click on them to enlarge:

Thanks to those who have volunteered so far! (I'm still happy to accept more volunteers, and you don't need any special expertise at all; the questions should be easy for anyone to answer ( Read more... )

Does anyone want to help with SCIENCE for a few minutes? Before I describe the last bit of my research in detail here, I could use help from some people getting some insights into something I haven't quite figured out yet. If you want to help out, I'll send you a file (PDF or Word doc) sometime in the next 24 hours, and you can look at some items ( Read more... )
