In this study, you will be completing a number of questions about appropriate synthesized voices. Most questions will require you to choose one, and only one, of the available options as an answer whereas the final question will require you to rate the available options.



The purpose of this study is to investigate people’s reactions to different styles of voices and rate their appropriateness for use as voices in humanoid robots when interacting with humans. This method of gathering data will allow for the collective results to be analysed in an appropriate manner.



The responses you provide will be analysed for my undergraduate project research.



This study has been given ethical approval by the SOCS. The study should only take approximately 15 minutes to complete.



Participants are also free to withdraw from the study at any point and even after they have been completed, for up to 2 weeks, if they do not wish to have their responses used they will be discarded. All data will be anonymous and no personal details will be recorded or used.
