Temporary Gig - Swedish Speaker Research Participant, NYC

About the study

Most technology is still designed with English speakers in mind. This study helps researchers understand how people who communicate in Swedish actually use their devices, so future products work better for them.

• Walk us through how you use your phone and favourite apps in daily life
• Share examples of your everyday phone activity with the research team (you decide what's included)
• Fill in a short questionnaire about your habits

Requirements

• 18+ and currently living in NYC
• Native Swedish speaker who grew up in Sweden
• Use Swedish in everyday life (texting friends, email, notes)
• Have used a smartphone as your main personal phone for 3+ years
• Comfortable communicating in English
• Available for 3 consecutive days (Mon–Wed or Thu–Sat), starting October 16 (Friday)
• Not currently employed by a tech or AI company

Great fit for international students, people new to NYC, and anyone between jobs or with a flexible schedule.
