Support Relationship Research

I just received a request from a PhD student at the University of Virginia and thought I would pass it along. It sounds like a great project. Hooray for more research into relationships and marriage!

Engaged volunteers needed!


I am looking for volunteers for a study of attitudes towards marriage and parenthood among engaged couples. The study consists of a 25-30 minute online survey. To qualify for the study, you must be 20-35 years old, live in the U.S., and plan to marry or have a commitment ceremony within the next 365 days. You and your romantic partner must not have children, and this must be the first marriage for both of you.


You can:


-Help a doctoral candidate;

-Increase the pool of scientific knowledge;

-Support research on marriage and families; and

-Spend some time thinking about your relationship!


I am working with Dr. Charlotte J. Patterson, a Professor of Psychology at the University of Virginia. This study has been approved by the University of Virginia Institutional Review Board #2009025800.


If you and/or your romantic partner are interested in participating or want further information, please email me at surveycouples@gmail.com. I will send you a link that you can use to access the study.


Thanks!

The two mailto: links have vastly different email addresses there. Are you sure this isn't spam?

Woohoo, this is my friend Cristina! Definitely not spam. We were undergrads in Scotland together. I'd do the survey but I got married last year. Good luck C! How random to come across this... - Briony

pretty cool survey! I'm going to ask my fiance to take it as well, I think it asks great questions. I'm feeling good about us now, we actually had already talked about basically everything on that survey.
