If you’re the kind of person who gets excited when someone shares a research survey, then CogSci DIY lets your take your curiosity to a whole new level and join in the creation of an online research project.
From coming up with the topic to voting on the research plan and watching it all happen, this community-lead project is happening over a five week period starting June 1st 2021. You can find out more and sign up on the CogSci DIY website.
Below is a short introductory video from the CogSci DIY team:

Idk if y’all wanna hear this but all it takes is one reblog and I will tell the full story with screenshots
