My name is Michael Seely, and I am a doctoral candidate in Clinical Psychology at the California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University in San Francisco. I am currently looking for gay and bisexual men to participate in a research study for my doctoral dissertation.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether certain aspects of one's personality are related to their sexual practices, well-being, and health. If you choose to participate in the study, you will be asked to answer questions about your recent sexual activity, as well as questions about your physical and emotional health.
The study is open to all men who identify as gay or bisexual and are over 18 years of age. Participation involves completing an online survey that takes approximately 30 minutes. Following the completion of the survey, you will have the opportunity to enter a drawing for one of several $50 Visa gift cards.
Participation in the study is entirely voluntary, and you are free to withdraw at any point. No personally-identifying information will be collected during the survey, and all responses will be kept confidential.
You can learn more about the study and take the survey by going to http://www.msmhealthstudy.com/. I am happy to personally answer questions by email at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Any identifying information in emails will be used for communication purposes only. All information contained in emails will be kept entirely separate from the survey data, and will be destroyed at the end of the study.
Please feel free to forward this message to anyone who meets the criteria listed above and might be interested in participating. I thank you for your willingness to help me with this research, and I appreciate your time.
