[nabs-l] Sex knowledge survey

Angela  and list,

  While  I do find the concept of this study interesting,  I would
like to  throw out a few thoughts of my  own, if I may.
 Yes, it is obviously  true that blind people have  sex and sexual
desires, much  like any other human being.  But the question that may
be worth thinking about is, how do we go about getting  the
information?  How do we find out about sex?  are we told of it by our
parents? by the  teachers at the schools for the blind? on T.V.,
Books, Media? how do we visualize it? Is Sex and sexuality something
that  can be depicted in a tactual model, or illistrated in a braille
book?  All I am suggesting, is that   there are many questions
surrounding sex that don't  really  have to do with "do you know what
goes where?" If I was within the age range of the study (and I am not
anymore), I would ask myself if   the questions  that I'm being asked
are really worthwhile questions that help people to be better educated
about blindness and what we really can do, or if it's just  a study
that  has no real meaning to it.   I would also wonder where the
findings will go, where will they be  printed,  will the consumer
organizations (NFB, ACB)  get a hold of this data?  These are just
some thoughtsI am just allowing to surface for now.
  Thanks,
  Darian

>> whether you are a  male or female , your age, and your visual acuity. We
>> will record all of that information including your name and address, but
>> please be assured that once we have analyzed the results, we intend to

>> The  interviewer will read each statement. Then, you are to  tell the
>> interviewer whether you think it is true or false.  We do not want you to
>> guess. Thus, if you do not know, we want you to indicate that to the
>> interviewer. Also, if  the interviewer  reads words that you do not
>> understand, we want you to  tell the interviewer those words.  When you
>> are
>> done, we will  send you a ten-dollar bill as a token of our appreciation
>> for
>> your willingness to  be interviewed.
>>
>> The purpose of this study is to develop the best test we can in order that
>> we can use it in the future with other visually disabled adolescents and
>> young adults. The problem is if the test is not very good, then we can't
>> trust the results. Thus, you can help us by taking the test as a trial
>> run.
>> We will analyze all of the answers given by all of the  participants to
>> help
>> us figure out which statements are good and which ones should be thrown
>> out
>> or rewritten.
>>
>> We want you to understand that you are not forced to  participate in this
>> study. If you choose not to participate, that is okay. Nothing bad will
>> happen. If you start the  interview and then decide not to finish it, that
>> is okay too. We want you to know that if you finish the interview, then we
>> will give you a ten-dollar bill. If you decide not to  be interviewed or
>> not
>> to finish the interview, then you will not receive the money.
>>
