How Language Learning Affects You

Have you ever wondered how learning a new language reshapes your mind? We are looking for participants who are good at English and are interested in learning a new language.

In this study, we will conduct a computer behavior experiment in which we investigate language learning and its relationship to other cognitive processes using eye-tracking technologies. There are two mutually exclusive parts to this study—you can only participate in either Group 1 or Group 2. The on-site session for Group 2 will take place at a later date.
