<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Fellow Internet researchers,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We would like to present a unique Internet research
opportunity to you. We<BR>have been working on developing a database of
individuals who are willing to<BR>participate in online research (<A
href="http://www.StudyResponse.com">http://www.StudyResponse.com</A>).
Approximately<BR>850 people have registered to be participants with the service
as of today.<BR>We have completed one study (and are nearly finished with data
collection<BR>for a second) using this database, and are eager to do
another.<BR><BR>The response rate for the first study was about 60%, and
promises to equal<BR>that for the second study. We had a demographically diverse
group of 50<BR>males and 100 females, with ages ranging from 18 to 77 years old
(M=39), a<BR>wide distribution of occupations and educational levels, and
various work<BR>situations (i.e. full time, part time, temp, etc.). The majority
of<BR>participants reported being very comfortable computers and the Internet.
The<BR>respondent group did not differ from the non-respondent group on
any<BR>demographic variables of interest. A more complete description of the
panel<BR>in terms of age, gender, race, occupation, work situation, and
educational<BR>level is available at <A
href="http://www.psychology.gatech.edu/eweiss/sample.htm">http://www.psychology.gatech.edu/eweiss/sample.htm</A>
.<BR>We are also developing a page detailing the results of past studies
at<BR><A

.<BR><BR>We'd like to know if you would be interested in conducting a study
using our<BR>database. The study should require not more than 425 participants
(assuming<BR>an approximate 50% response rate, for estimation purposes), and
should<BR>involve an incentive of some kind (either a raffle or a direct payment
to<BR>participants). You would need to provide us with a recruitment e-mail
to<BR>send out to our group. You are also responsible for setting up
and<BR>maintaining your online survey. At the end, we will provide you
with<BR>information on non-respondents and any information you may need for
payment.<BR><BR>If you'd like more information, don't hesitate to contact us.
You can also<BR>visit the StudyResponse.com website and click on the link for
"researchers"<BR>to learn more about how the process
works.<BR><BR>Thanks!<BR><BR>Jeff Stanton and Elizabeth
