Men needed for a PhD study on parent's influence on love relationships
DrSoon
You are invited to participate and/or help find participants in a
doctoral research study from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology.
The purpose of this research is to see if the father-son relationship
(or lack of relationship) influence men's later adult romantic
relationships. The focus on romantic relationships will concentrate on
attitudes concerning attachment, caregiving, and sex perceptions and
behaviors.
Who can apply: This is open to all American men aged 18 years or older,
regardless of current relationship status or sexual orientation. We are
interested in encouraging participation by those men who might have
been raised in a home where there was no relationship with their
fathers and there was no physically present father substitute. We are
also interested in participation by men who had positive and/or
negative relationships with their fathers.
Commitment: Participation requires completing a number of
questionnaires relevant to the study. The questionnaires take about 30
minutes to an hour to complete. Most questions are either
multiple-choice or ratings on a scale. There may also be a few short
answer questions. Some questions deal specifically with sexual behavior
and attitudes. Participants will also be asked to forward an invitation
to this study to at least two of their male friends and/or family.
Confidentiality: This study is completely confidential. Name, email
address, or identifying information will not be collected without the
participant's permission. No identifying information will be
associated with participant's answers. Responses will be processed
using group statistical analyses, not by themselves therefore, nobody,
not even the primary researcher, will be able to identify participants.
Benefits: You will have an opportunity to get involved in actual
experimental research. The experience may provide you with a better
understanding of your romantic relationships.
