Hi,

We are a group of VR accessibility researchers from University of Wisconsin-Madison and Virginia Tech. We are conducting research to understand the harassment experience for people with disabilities in social VR. We are reaching out to see if you could help us spread out the word and recruit participants.

We specify our study details below:
Participants will complete an online survey to reflect on their harassment experiences in social VR. The survey will take 30-60 minutes to complete, and we offer $10 compensation after completing the survey. This study is fully remote.

Eligible participants meet the following criteria:
Be at least 18 years old;
Have a disability, including but not limited to visual impairments, deaf and hard of hearing, motor disabilities, intellectual disabilities, autism, etc;
Have used social VR applications.

To Participate:
If you are a person with a disability and are interested in participating in this study, please fill out the interest form: https://uwmadison.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_aY4PCc7pN7jtq3Y. We will contact you shortly if you are eligible to participate in the study.

We would greatly appreciate it if you could share this message with others in your community. Your support helps advance research to make social VR platforms more inclusive and accessible. If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected] (Adeline Li). We look forward to hearing from you!
