[RESEARCH VOLUNTEER] Participants wanted for paid study – £80 for 6x30minute sessions
We are currently looking for some paid participants for a cardio-based authentication feasibility study. The study involves light physical activities, and then measuring the participants’ electro-cardio signal through their fingertips using a handheld electronic device. Light refreshments (drinks and snacks) will be provided during the study.
The study will preferably be carried out between February and March 2016. All participants are expected to attend 6 sessions during a 5 week period.
- Sessions 1-4: preferably in 4 consecutive days, and preferably at different time of the day
- Sessions 5-6: preferably 2 weeks after the previous session (follow-up sessions)
Each session should take no longer than 30 minutes, and does not require any prior experience or technical skill. The study will take place at the Broers Building, Hauser Forum, on the University’s West Cambridge site. (Please note that this study is not sponsored by – nor associated with – the University.)
Participants will receive up to £80 in total for the study: £10 per session for the sessions 1-4, and £20 per session for sessions 5 & 6, provided sessions 1-4 were all attended), payable at the end of each session.
Eligibility: All participants must be at least 18 years of age, healthy and not exhibiting any medical heart conditions.
Warning: The study is not a medical experiment . Participants will not be examined by a doctor. ECG data will not be analysed to detect any pathological condition and will be anonymised irreversibly.
