Description:

In this study, participants will view words and letters on a computer screen. The stimuli may be presented in different locations of the visual field depending on where the participant is looking. We ask that participants have normal or corrected-to-normal vision, be native English speakers, and not wear any eye makeup. The experiment is two sessions lasting up to two hours per session and participants will be compensated with either a prepaid debit card with $80.00 or PsyRep credit. Once a participant is enrolled in a seat for the study, the researcher will contact with them to schedule the seat of second session. There are not any direct benefits or costs to participants. The experiment is in-person only and is located in Engel Vision & Imaging Laboratory (https://engellab.psych.umn.edu/). The location is in secured areas of the basement of Elliott Hall, and cell phone reception may be limited.
