Dear All, One of my undergraduate students is studying women 35+ who play casual games such as poker and Bejeweled. She needs some more people to interview through email or in chat. Does anyone know anyone who plays these games in this demographic and if so, how the student could contact them? Or any listservs or whatever that might have such players? She has found several players on MySpace and Facebook who are willing to talk but they are too young for her study. The student has been playing herself but people are reluctant to give interviews when they have no idea who they are talking to. The games are only 30 minutes or so so it's difficult to establish rapport. I think this is an interesting area of research as apparently a lot of women in this age group play, subverting the stereotype that games are for young(ish) males. Thanks for any help. -- Bonnie Bonnie A. Nardi School of Information and Computer Sciences University of California, Irvine Irvine, CA 92697-3440 (949) 824-6534 www.artifex.org/~bonnie/
