 From Dr. Peng.........................

Dear MSU student:

> You are invited to participate in a research study that hopes to 
> improve the design of a fun and engaging video game to help you get 
> exercise while you play! Right now, we're conducting a series of lab 
> experiments to get a good idea of how many calories you will burn by 
> playing this game. We would like to invite you to be one of the first 
> who can experience the game.
>
> The experiment session should take about 60 minutes. You will be asked 
> to avoid eating for two to three hours prior to the session, as food 
> ingestion can affect energy expenditure values. In the session, you 
> will be invited to the Human Energy Research lab to play the game for 
> 30 minutes and complete a questionnaire about your experience with the 
> game. You will wear a heart rate monitor placed on a belt around your 
> chest and an ActiGraph accelerometer placed on a belt at the hip while 
> you are playing the game to measure energy expenditure. Some of you 
> will be chosen to wear a metabolic device to measure your energy 
> expenditure during game play. The metabolic device has a mask you wear 
> to measure your oxygen uptake. You will receive a $10 e-giftcard to 
> Amazon.com via email a week after your participation. If you are 
> recruited from a class and your instructor allows, you will also 
> receive extra course credit. If you are interested, please visit the 
> following link to fill out a short survey which takes about 5 minutes 
> to complete. If you are selected to participate, we will email you to 
> schedule your session.
