Subject: [Nfbnet-members-list] Blind and low-vision adults needed for research study to assess access to multimodal materials

 

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.

 

Dear NFB Members:

 

Researchers at Wichita State University are seeking participants for a research study about blind and low vision readers’ access to multimodal materials. This study is being conducted by Dr. Darren DeFrain at the Wichita State University. The purpose of this study is to determine the common and unique challenges that blind and low vision readers face when reading multimodal texts such as comics, news articles, maps, and other visually based documents. Identifying these challenges will allow for accessibility design teams to better accommodate the needs of blind and low vision readers.

 

If you are age 18 or older, and would like to participate in this study, please click the following Qualtrics link: https://wichitastate.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8cOdAWzMQuhDi7k

 

If you would like additional information about this study, please call or email Dr. Darren DeFrain at 316-978-6271 or Darren.defrain at wichita.edu <mailto:Darren.defrain at wichita.edu> .

 

Thank you again for considering this research opportunity.
