Hello:

Thank you for participating in my Language Proficiency Project. This project focuses on the effect of previously learned languages on the participants' foreign language, Spanish.

In this survey, you will first be asked a few questions about your language background and will then presented with two recordings for each of the seven speakers. You will then be asked to listen and complete a series of questions after each recording.

It will take approximately 25 minutes to complete this questionnaire. If, at any time, you have questions about the survey or the procedures you may contact me, Lauren McKarus at 07 463248103 or by email [email protected]

Thank you very much for your time. Please start with the survey now by clicking on the Continue button below.
