Please help us with a short survey

Transparent Lab survey
As you all know, this blog is about the development and implementation of research projects. We would like to take this opportunity to do a study on how a blog about research impacts readers of the blog. We (Drs. Giles, Stadtlander and Sickel) would like to invite you to participate in a short qualitative study about this blog. We will post an invitation to the study at the beginning of each of the next 4 quarters, and encourage you to participate each time. At the beginning of the survey, you will be asked to select a 4 digit number that means something to you - such as the last 4 digits of your phone number. We are hoping to track people over time without knowing their name or any personal information, though we are limiting the survey to adults over the age of 18. While there are no direct benefits of participating, you will get an opportunity to see what it is like to be a participant in a study over time and then see the results from everyone who participates.

The survey should take no more than twenty minutes. Your consent to participate is totally voluntary and anonymous. By taking the survey you are consenting to allow us to use your answers to identify themes shared by Blog readers. The survey is truly anonymous; we will have no access to any information that will identify who you are. We appreciate your participation, but if you decide not to participate or not to participate in the future we will not know and there will be no change in your status as a blog subscriber. We will share the results of the study and the procedures within the blog at the end of the project.
