Title: A Tutorial on Designing a Human-Subjects Research Study

Abstract: In this presentation, I will give an overview of the process of rigorously designing a human-subjects study, including defining hypothesis, identifying key constructs, selecting a between- or within- subjects design, using a power analysis to determine how many participants to recruit, selecting appropriate measurements, and study pre-registration.

Bio: Sarah Sebo is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the University of Chicago where she directs the UChicago Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) Lab. Her current research explores social dynamics in human-robot interactions. She designs social robots that can shape human-to-human interactions, enable long-term human-robot social relationships, and build a fundamental understanding of how to engineer human-like social interactions. Her research demonstrates real impact in people's everyday lives through the design and development of robots for use in education, within collaborative teams, and in the home.
