  • Participants Needed: Survey on Social Experiences

    Participants Needed: Survey around parental acceptance and rejection, personality, experiences in social scenarios, and loneliness

    You are invited to participate in this study of how social scenarios are experienced and the ways in which personality, loneliness, and past experiences with parental acceptance and rejection contribute. We seek to determine what leads individuals to perceive and react differently to various interactions in close relationships and how anxiety and anger can play a role.

    This survey should take about 20 minutes to complete, and your personally identifying information will not be collected. Any results reported will be reported in summary form, so you will not be identified individually in any way in any published or presented findings from the study. Your participation or non-participation in the survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. You will not be paid for being in this study. We believe this survey does not involve any risk to you. Although you may find this survey interesting, there will be no direct benefit to you from your participation.
