Hearing-motion synesthesia online research survey seeking participants

Hearing Motion Synesthesia Online Research Survey Seeking Participants

Do you hear movement?

Researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago want to learn more about a condition called hearing-motion synesthesia. Hearing-motion synesthesia is a form of synesthesia where seeing movements results in hearing sounds.

In this study you will first be asked to answer questions about your knowledge and experience with hearing-motion synesthesia. Then you will be asked to watch 10 short and simple animations and answer questions about your auditory response, or what you hear in your head when viewing the videos. Each of the 10 animations will include 2 different audios and you will be asked to choose the one closest to what you hear in your head. The entire study including survey procedures and interactions with animations is estimated to take around 25 minutes.

This study may be a good fit for you if you know you have hearing-motion synesthesia or think you may have it, but anyone is welcome to take it.

After the survey, you will be given the choice to enter an optional drawing for a chance to win one of three digital gift cards. If you choose to participate, you will be entered into a chance to win one of three gift cards at a $60, $25, or $15 value. This means that your chance of winning depends on how many people enter the study. If 15 people enter the study, you will have a 3 in 15 chance of winning. These digital gift cards will be distributed via Amazon Incentives after the conclusion of the study using the email address provided.
