A PhD student [Sandy Bartell] at the University of Washington in Seattle is looking for Japanese ESL (English as a Second Language) individuals over the age of 18 who have taken the TOEIC exam within the last 5 years for an online study. She is looking for recruits with ALL LEVELS OF ENGLISH PROFICIENCY—from beginner to advanced. The purpose of her dissertation study is to use the input from survey participants to help develop guidelines that improve English-language web sites for nonnative English speakers.
Participation is entirely voluntary. Participants will need to submit their TOEIC scores when they take the survey but all of their responses will be kept strictly confidential.
Participants will read two short articles and answer some survey questions. At the end of the study they will have the chance to enter a drawing for some Amazon.com or Amazon.co.jp (their choice) gift certificates.
To participate in the study, go to the following URL and follow the directions to proceed with the study:

If participants have other friends or colleagues who might qualify or be interested in participating in this study, the PhD student will be grateful if they pass on this information to them.
