Background on our research project

At the University of Washington, we're passionate about understanding how potentially toxic or disrespectful language or stereotypes can be used against certain demographics/groups of people (e.g. racism, sexism, etc.). This requires studying the effect of political leaning and race/ethnicity in how people perceive offensiveness and biases, which is why we are collecting this information from you.

Data collection & sharing
We will not ask you for your name, and the data collected in this study will be made unidentifiable to the best of our extent. We will securely store the data on our servers and only share with qualified researchers. If you later decide that you do not want your responses included in this study, please email us so we can exclude your work (Maarten Sap at msap@cs.washington.edu, or Professor Yejin Choi at yejin@cs.washington.edu).
If you have questions about your rights as a research participant, or wish to obtain information, ask questions or discuss any concerns about this study with someone other than the researcher(s), please contact the University of Washington Human Subjects Division at 206-543-0098 (for international calls include the US Calling Code: +1-206-543-0098).
