A PhD student invites you to share your experiences to help develop new technology for stammering.

Manal Alatawi, from the Digital Interaction Lab at the University of Amsterdam, and someone who stammers, is looking to develop a new piece of technology to support and empower others who stammer. 

To help him design it, he would like to gather insights by asking people about their experiences and perspectives of living with a stammer, and their strategies for managing it. 

What does it involve?

If you would like to take part, Manal will ask you to join him for an online interview where he’ll ask you questions about your experiences. This will take roughly an hour.

You need to be:

  • a person who stammers
  • aged 18 or over
  • an English speaker.

Contact

To apply, or to find out more about the research study, please email Manal at m.alatawi@uva.nl

This study has been approved by the STAMMA Research Panel. To find out more, see Take Part In Stammering Research, where you can also see a list of other studies you can take part in.
