Older adults needed for research study on emotion recognition

Are you interested in donating 30 minutes of your time to help students from Mount St. Vincent University with a fascinating research project?

All you have to do is view some pictures and videos, and identify the emotions you believe are being portrayed. You will also complete a couple of short questionnaires. All volunteer participants will be entered into a draw to win a $20 Tim Horton’s gift certificate. All individual results will be kept confidential.

Why are the students asking Bay Residents to help out? Because it’s easy to find young adults on a university campus, for for students, accessing older adults is a little more difficult.

If you’d like to participate, please call one of the student researchers, Chaya Seale, at 902-237-4754. Chaya is booking spots for Thursday afternoon in St. Margaret’s Bay, and would be interested in setting up another interview date in the St. Margaret’s Bay area later this month.
