Online Study: Validating Stimuli for Studying Mental Representations Formed by Parallel Programmers

[leahb...@gmail.com]

I am conducting an online study and would greatly appreciate your involvement in the study, or if you know anyone who has the necessary background please feel free to share the information about the study:

Researchers at the University of New Brunswick are recruiting programmers with experience in parallel programming in C using OpenMP 4.0 directives to complete an online study.  The goal of the research is to study the mental representations formed by parallel programmers.  Understanding these representations is important for developing programming languages and tools that enhance and assist programmers in the comprehension process and other tasks.    

Receive an e-gift card valued at $10 CAD for participating (unfortunately, e-gift cards are not available for the following countries: Belarus, Congo, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Korea North, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Ukraine, Yemen, Zimbabwe).    

The study takes approximately 60 minutes and needs to be completed on a desktop or laptop computer (not a handheld device).  The study can be accessed through the following link:
