Welcome! You are invited to participate in a research study conducted by Sharon Shin Shin Tang, a graduate student in the Department of Psychology at the University of Oregon. The purpose of the study is to increase knowledge and understanding of factors affecting depression and anxiety.

What does this study entail? If you decide to participate, you will be asked to answer a series of questionnaires about your emotions, moods and history of trauma. There is no one correct answer to any question. You are encouraged to be as thorough as possible. However, your participation is voluntary and you are free to choose not to answer any given question and/or withdraw from the study at any time. Your decision whether or not to participate will not affect your relationship with the Psychology Department, the University of Oregon, or any other groups or persons. The duration of the entire study will be less than 60 minutes.

What do I get for participating? You will receive a $10 electronic gift certificate to Amazon.com for completing the survey. In order to receive the gift certificate, you will be asked to provide an email address. This address will not be linked to the data. If you would prefer to remain anonymous and still participate in the study, you do not need to provide any contact information, but you will not receive the gift certificate.

n addition, the information that is gathered in this study may provide information that is beneficial toward our understanding of mental health diagnoses and, specifically, may provide you with a greater understanding of psychological research. However, we cannot guarantee that you personally will receive any benefits from this research beyond receiving the gift certificate.

Will anyone know which results are mine? Confidentiality is strictly maintained at all times. All data obtained from this experiment will be assigned a numerical code. No reference to your identity will be contained anywhere in the data.

Who should I call if I have questions? If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the principal investigator (PI), Ms. Sharon S. Tang, Department of Psychology, University of Oregon, Eugene, OR 97403, (541) 346-1982, stang@<hidden>.

After completing the whole survey, I got this message:

Did Not Save

An unexpected error has occurred and your responses cannot be saved.

Your responses have not been lost and have been emailed to the survey administrator and will be entered into our database at a later point.


Needless to say, I'm a little bummed... Glad it worked out for you guys.

I got an error at the end. It said
"Did Not Save

Hopefully I still get it. Didn't take too long for $10!

I'm sure she has to go thru all the studies and evalute them, I'd allow her a few more days, when it comes to these surveys, not only Stanford, patience above and beyond is a lesson I have learned very early on..:gdflower3: also on the cognitive study Im sure will all will be paid, it hit right as they were changing the site over and Eric Knowles, the student that did the research is slow in paying..but G.C.'s do come..They have had so much problems recently with people from other sites being devious taking their studies.. So I think we need to give them some room for a bit, and once they are comfortable with the new site, I'm sure there will be more regular studies as usual.. Just my 2 cents for what it's worth :gdflower3:

Okay, just received this e-mail! Im mad, gotta take it again! I hope we get more $ haha!



We received a survey form submitted from your email address to
http://psych.uoregon.edu/~stang/phpsurveyor/index.php?sid=3.
Apparently this was a response to an online survey that we had advertised on craigslist.org for a different URL -- http://dynamic.uoregon.edu/climbingsurvey. Someone apparently hacked our survey and posted an altered advertisement on multiple other sites, with a URL that bypassed important components of our survey and made false promises on our behalf. The survey was deactivated as soon as we discovered the false ads.


Unfortunately, we cannot consider any of the data that resulted when the protocol was breached and did not begin at our official home page. We will be deleting all such data entries, and will not be able to remunerate individuals who provided email addresses. We understand that some people invested their time and did their best to answer honestly, and we deeply regret any confusion or disappointment that the hacking has caused.


We take the security and confidentiality of our participants very seriously. Although we are confident that this confidentiality has not been violated, we have temporarily disabled the survey while we investigate the hack and make absolutely sure that our procedures meet the highest standards for security and reliability. We hope to re-enable the survey soon, and when we do we hope you'll be interested in participating.


Sincerely,
