Researcher looking for study participants

[Maggo24]

Hi all, my name is Marco Dehnert, I am a researcher/social scientist based in the US looking to learn more about dolls. I'm originally from Germany.

I hope you all don't mind me posting this here. I know there's lots of media/research requests, so I apologize if this comes across as spam.

I am looking for folks to participate in an anonymous interview study (compensated, about 1h via Zoom or similar, audio-only if preferred). You are especially invited to join if you use any interactive features with your doll (an app like Replika, a voice generator, robotic movement, etc), but you're also welcome to join if you do not.

I know that some of you have come across requests like this a lot, including from sometimes shady media people. I'm a researcher, and I'm happy to share more info if interested. I am very committed to confidentiality and protecting private information.

If you are interested in participating, you can send me a DM or an email at robotrelationships[at]gmail.com or marco.dehnert[at]asu.edu

Thanks,
Marco
