Pleasant suprise; turns on that the Computer Lab near the library (would that be the UCC then?!) purchased new computers over the summer. Granted, their Compaqs, but anything's an improvement over the dinosaurs they had in there.

::switches into infomercial mode:: So, do you attend Western and are looking to earn a few extra bucks this semester? Boy, do I have the answer for you! Tell 'em about him, Jason!

Want some $$$?!
This semester I'm working with Doug J., a doctoral student in psychology at Western Michigan. We are looking for individuals to participate in a study designed to determine how well individuals perform a data entry task under various conditions. The data entry task simulates the job of a proof operator at a bank and consists of entering numbers using a numeric keypad on a computer. Computer games will also be available during the sessions if individuals want to play them. The study will be conducted in Wood Hall on WMU's campus.

If you are currently enrolled in or have completed either PSY 444 or PSY 344, you are not eligible to participate. In addition, you must play computer games at least one hour per month to be eligible to participate.

Sessions will be 45 minutes and you will be asked to attend 8 sessions over a 3-week period. The amount of money you earn will depend upon the conditions of the study, but it is likely that you will earn from $4.00 to $8.00 per session.

Your participation is completely voluntary and you may withdraw at any time. If you do withdraw, you will be paid the money you have earned up to that point.

If you are interested in participating in the study, post a comment and I will forward your information to Doug, or if you prefer, I can give you his contact information.

Thanks!
