<br>
Cheryl Fogle-Hatch, Ph.D. (an independent archaeologist and museum <br>
professional) and Don Winiecki, Ed.D., Ph.D. (a professor at Boise <br>
State University) are conducting survey research to identify <br>
experiences of blind and visually-impaired individuals at museums.<br>
<br>
<br>
If you choose to complete the survey it will take you about 15 to 20 <br>
minutes. More information about the survey and the research is included below.<br>

The survey is intended for individuals who are (a) 18-years old or <br>
older, (b) blind or visually-impaired, and (c) who have visited one <br>
or more museums in the past.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Possible Benefits<br>
<br>
Results of this research will be reported at academic and <br>
professional conferences and in journal publications. Findings and <br>
conclusions of the research will enable the researchers to provide <br>
information and advice that can improve the experience of blind and <br>
visually-impaired persons in museums.<br>
<br>
<br>
Risks and Discomforts<br>
<br>
This study involves no foreseeable serious risks. We ask that you try <br>
to answer all questions; however, if there are any items that make <br>
you uncomfortable or that you would prefer to skip, please leave the <br>
answer blank.<br>
<br>
Protection of Privacy and Confidentiality<br>
<br>
The survey is designed so that your responses are anonymous. However, <br>
for this research project, the researchers are requesting demographic <br>
information. Due to the make-up of the population of blind and <br>
visually-impaired persons in certain areas, the combined answers to <br>
these questions may make a person identifiable. The researchers will <br>
make every effort to protect your confidentiality. However, if you <br>
are uncomfortable answering any of these questions, you should skip them.<br>
<br>
Choosing to Be in the Study<br>
<br>
You do not have to be in this study. Participation is voluntary. You <br>
may choose not to take part and you may choose to stop taking part at <br>
any time without penalty.<br>
