Nashville Marriage Studio

When I was an undergrad Psychology student at Tennessee Tech I hated doing research because no one ever wants to participate. You could give people lots and lots of money and they would still avoid you and your study.

It bites.

So when Cristina emailed me looking for assistance in getting the word out for her DOCTORAL study at University of Virginia I had to oblige. If you’re engaged help the lady out. Please?

Engaged volunteers needed!

I am looking for volunteers for a study of attitudes towards marriage and parenthood among engaged couples. The study consists of a 25-30 minute online survey. To qualify for the study, you must be 20-35 years old, live in the U.S., and plan to marry or have a commitment ceremony within the next 365 days. You and your romantic partner must not have children, and this must be the first marriage for both of you.

You can:
-Help a doctoral candidate;
-Increase the pool of scientific knowledge;
-Support research on marriage and families;
and -Spend some time thinking about your relationship!

I am working with Dr. Charlotte J. Patterson, a Professor of Psychology at the University of Virginia. This study has been approved by the University of Virginia Institutional Review Board #2009025800. If you and/or your romantic partner are interested in participating or want further information, please email me at survey.couples@gmail.com. I will send you a link that you can use to access the study.

Thanks!
