Karl Rosvold (ALT\/CIR in Hiroshima Prefecture, ’93-’96) is conducting an online reading experiment targeted at foreigners who are learning or have learned Japanese. He’s looking for as many participants as possible who are native or near-native English speakers and \u201cupper-beginner\u201d or above in Japanese (defined as having passed the old JLPT 3\/new JLPT N4). There are a few other conditions which you can see on the experiment website.<\/p>\n

Registration will start around September 25th. To participate in the experiment, simply fill out a short questionnaire on the website, then come back two more times, about a week apart to take two short Japanese reading comprehension tests, with or without hints about the kanji in the text. Each step should take about 30 minutes. Ideally, people will participate because they feel the experiment is interesting and beneficial, but for participants living in Japan, Karl is also offering a 2000 yen QUO gift card to the first 100 people who complete the whole experiment.<\/p>\n

Please check out the temporary website for more information:\u00a0 http:\/\/kanjijikken.web.fc2.com\/<\/a>
\nor feel free to e-mail Karl at kanji.experiment@gmail.com. Please let him know that you saw this message on Jetwit!<\/p>\n
