I am currently running an experiment where you could play a modified version of the classic game Whack-a-Mole for half an hour and get paid $7.50!

Doesn't it sound fun?

In this study, you will play the game on a touchscreen. In the game, you will be presented with a mole and his animal friends and your task will be to whack him as fast as possible. We will record how fast you whack the mole, and that's it!

The experiment takes place in room 409 of Meliora Hall, and it is designed to run for 30 to 45 minutes. You must be at least 18 years old, speak and understand English, have normal or corrected-to-normal vision, have normal hearing, and be able to use a touch-sensitive screen. You will be paid $7.50 in cash upon completion of the experiment.

If you are interested, please click the "send me an email" button above so we can schedule a convenient time for you to participate. I typically schedule appointments during regular work hours (Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm), but we may be able to work something else out if you are busy during those times. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!
