Participant Recruitment Notice

Posted by Department of Computer Science on April 26, 2016 in General Announcements

We are conducting a study to evaluate our proposal designs of protecting the privacy of live video broadcasters. We seek members of the Dalhousie University community (e.g., students, faculty, staff) who broadcast using any live video broadcasting software (e.g., Periscope) to help us evaluate our prototype designs. The study will be conducted in the Goldberg Faculty of Computer Science building (6050 University Ave).

You will be asked to provide consent, fill-in a short questionnaire about your background (e.g., education, experience with live broadcasting), and then interact with six prototype designs. Three of the prototypes that each tell you who is watching your location and where they are located. Each prototype will show the same information but each will show it differently. The second three prototypes will allow you different ways to set your privacy preferences in live video broadcasting software.

The study will take about one hour to complete, and there is compensation of $20 for participation.

If you are interested in participating, please contact
Dhuha Al-Amiri (Graduate Student, Dalhousie University)
