Remote Adult Language Experiment (ReAL-E) Two-Part Study

We are in the process of developing an online language tool called the Remote Adult Language Experiment (ReAL-E). The aim of the ReAL-E is to allow researchers to collect data from large, diverse groups that can help us learn more about language, speech, and reading differences and disorders. At this phase, we are recruiting individuals to complete two testing sessions, first in-person and then online, to evaluate the effectiveness of our language tool.
