Only 17 more couples needed!
LMD
by the IRB at University of Detroit Mercy. I am collecting this data
for my thesis.
In order to participate, couples must be living with their current
partner and have cohabitated for at least six months. Both members of
the couple are needed for participation. Participation in the study
requires minimal effort (20 minutes to an hour), but would mean a
great deal to me. It is completely voluntary and involves the one-time
completion of a questionnaire online. Each person would also be asked
to sign a consent form online indicating your willingness to
participate.
As an additional incentive to participate there will also be holding a
raffle at the end of the study. The grand prize is an ipod nano.
All personal and identifying information will be separated from the
other information in the questionnaires before they are reviewed. In
other words, I will know who participates for the purpose of the
raffle, but your name will not be connected to your responses and the
information you provide.
Once couples volunteer, I will email them a link to the online survey
along with a password I.D.
My hope is that results from my research will generate valuable
information regarding the experiences of cohabitating couples. Upon
completion, I would be happy to provide a written summary or a free
seminar to those who are interested in hearing about the findings.
If you and your partner/spouse would like to participate, please send
both of your emails to me at lmdillonATgmail.com
Thank you for your consideration.
