Hi,

Thanks

Subject: [Blindtlk] Please help me with online research study

Hi all,
My name is Arielle Silverman and I am a doctoral student in the Department
of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Colorado. As you may
know, I am conducting a series of studies for my dissertation examining
blind people's experiences finding employment as well as your experiences in
interacting with the blind and sighted communities. I would once  again
appreciate your help with a brief online study. For this study, you will be
asked to write a brief essay and then, depending on which version you are
randomly assigned to, to either complete some math problems, verbal problems
or a short survey.
The entire study should take no more than 30 minutes to complete.
Again, in appreciation of your time, you will have the opportunity to enter
a raffle drawing to win a $50 gift certificate to a merchant of your choice
(Amazon.com, Itunes.com, Olive Garden, or AMC Theaters).
All of your responses in the study will be anonymous and confidential.
Anyone who is legally blind and at least 18 years old is welcome to
participate. However, some of the materials in this study are materials I
have used in previous studies. The results are most reliable with
participants who have not seen the materials before.
Therefore, if you have participated in any of my studies that involved math
or verbal problems in the past, I kindly ask that you refrain from
participating in this one. If you have just participated in my studies about
employment, however, you are welcome to participate in this study. I
appreciate your cooperation.
To begin please go to:

Thank you as always for your assistance. As many of you have asked about
results from this research, I intend to send out a summary of results from
all these studies once the project is completed, most likely at some point
in the spring.
Best,
Arielle Silverman, M.A.
