The below research participant solicitation is being provided for
informational purposes only. The National Federation of the Blind has no
involvement in this research, but we believe that it may contribute to our
research mission.



*Opportunity to participate in accessibility research at UW Madison*

Our research group at UW Madison is studying how people use assistive
technologies to read images, graphs, and visualizations online. We are
looking for participants to participate in a study to help us with our work!

Participants must be:

• At least 18 years old
• Legally blind

Participants will be given graphs, and asked to think aloud while they are
using the technologies to inform the study team about their behaviors and
thoughts, such as what assistive technologies they are using, what
information can they perceive from the graphs, what challenges they face.
Participants will be compensated a $20 gift card for each hour of a study
session.

If you are interested, please fill out the survey
<https://uwmadison.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bqpmNy6LJeKi4M6>: or
please contact us at yeaseul.kim at cs.wisc.edu (Yea-Seul Kim).

We look forward to meeting with you and learning from your experiences!
