Project Title: Understanding user experiences of play-by-play captioning in fast-paced live sports
Invitation:
We need your help! We are seeking 20 people who are Deaf (ASL or oral deaf) and 20 people who are Hard of Hearing and like watching live hockey or basketball on TV to participate in a research program to improve the quality of captioning of live sports TV in Canada. The study will be conducted at the Ted Rogers School of Management at Ryerson University in Toronto. As a participant in the research you will be asked to complete three short questionnaires, watch two ten-minute captioned live sports video segments (either hockey or basketball) and participate in a brief discussion about the game segments you just watched. In total, you will be involved for about 1 hour and 30 minutes. This study has been funded by the Broadcast Accessibility Fund. An honorarium of $60 is being offered for your participation plus reasonable travel expenses within the GTA. To qualify for participation in this research you need to be either Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing, and have watched captioned live ice hockey or basketball television broadcasts for at least one year. All research data from your participation will remain private and confidential, and will only be accessible to the research team. The research data will be analyzed and all reporting will be anonymized and done at an aggregate level.
