I am working under the supervision of Dr. Elinor Amit who is studying the effects of visual and verbal processing on decision-making. We are in the early stages of a study related to financial decision-making in which we hope to find a population of blind subjects who would be available to participate in an online study. Dr. Arielle Silverman at University of Washington recommended I get in touch with you to discuss possible advertising my research or to distribute a recruitment flyer. The study is in the early stages of development right now, but would consist of a fairly brief online survey. Is this something that you think would be possible? Additionally, if you could point me to any other resources that may help with this I would greatly appreciate it! <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:.5in'>Thank you very much,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>-- <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Alex Han<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Brown University, 2017<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><a href="mailto:alexander_han@brown.edu" target="_blank">alexander_han@brown.edu</a> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><a href="tel:%28207%29%20252-8336" target="_blank">(207) 252-8336</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>David Andrews and Long White Cane Harry<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:dandrews@visi.com"><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>dandrews@visi.com</span></a><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> or </span><a href="mailto:david.andrews@nfbnet.org"><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>david.andrews@nfbnet.org</span></a><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Twitter: @dandrews920<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
