Nancy
CW Operators Needed: “I am a medical student at the University of
Pittsburgh, who is currently conducting a summer research project in the
laboratory of Dr. Fiez. She is a professor in both the Psychology and
Neuroscience departments. A focus of our lab involves gaining a better
understanding of language and
memory processing. We have recently turned to Morse code as a
potential investigating tool due to its unique linguistic properties.
Consequently, our lab is examining the differences between processing
Morse code and speech in a simple memory task.
As you may already know, it is not easy to find people who are proficient
in Morse code. Your involvement would create a unique opportunity to
investigate this unexplored area of research.
We would greatly appreciate it if you would circulate this information to
all of your members. Participants will be compensated 25 dollars, and
will also be refunded for parking. They will be asked to hear and
remember letters. The duration of the study is approximately one hour
and thirty minutes. If there is interest, we can discuss any further details.
Thank you for your time and consideration.” — Dalia Balsamo, 718
