Hello:
You are invited to participate in our survey to help our group determine the current issues revolving around social media and privacy issues. It is the greatest hope of this group to use the information gathered through this survey to develop an application to counter some emerging concerns. In this survey, approximately 100 or so people will be asked to complete a survey that asks questions about mobile application use and privacy on the internet, mobile devices, and social media. It will take approximately 15 minutes to complete the questionnaire. Please complete this survey only if you have a smartphone or mobile device.
Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. There are no foreseeable risks associated with this project. However, if you feel uncomfortable answering any questions, you can withdraw from the survey at any point. It is very important for us to learn your opinion as it ultimately impacts the project design.
Your survey responses will be strictly confidential and data from this research will be reported only in the aggregate. Your information will be coded and will remain confidential. If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact the researchers for this project at [email protected].
Thank you very much for your time and support. Please start with the survey now by clicking on the Continue button below. |
