Sexuality and Autism Spectrum Disorder
:: |
| |
Melike Schalomon and Laura Gilmour
Department of Psychology, Grant MacEwan College, Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA |
| |
Purpose: We are interested in examining the relationship between sexuality and social behaviours associated with autism.
As a participant in this study, you will be asked to complete an online questionnaire. Participation should not take longer than about 30 to 45 minutes. You will be asked a number of demographic questions about your age, gender, ethnic background, and psychiatric history (if any). You will also be asked questions about behaviours that can be used by us to assess whether or not you may be classified as a person with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Then you will be asked about your understanding about sexual terms and you will be asked questions about the types of sexual experiences you have had. Finally, you will be asked about your sexual desires and about your opinions about your own sexuality.
Who is invited to participate in this research?
We hope to collect data from about 1000 subjects, both those with Autism Spectrum Disorder, their family members, and members of the general population. Participants must have a sufficiently high level of verbal function to understand language comparable to what is used in this research description. Subjects must be legally classified as an adult (i.e. not a minor) and must be legally emancipated (i.e. must not have a legal guardian) to be eligible to participate in this research project.

Interpersonal Values and Political Orientation
:: |
| |
Andrew Reilly, Arran Gare, Christine Critchley
Swinburne University of Technology |
| |
This study aims to investigate the relationship between peoples’ attitudes towards other people and their political values, as there has been very little research in this area to date. Interpersonal values are the values that people have concerning their interactions with other people. For example, some people enjoy spending time with others and working together, while other people prefer to spend time alone and working by themselves. All of these values can be considered to be important in some way, and the purpose of this study is to see whether they are related to the kind of political values people have. The purpose of this study is not to ‘pigeon-hole’ people, but to gain an understanding into how people’s values are expressed in our political systems.
Participants need to have voted in at least 3 elections in the last 10 years. Prize draw for $AU100 gift voucher. |

If you agree to take part in this study, you will be asked to complete some computer based categorization tasks and answer a number of questions about your food liking, beliefs and eating behaviour. The whole thing is online and takes you about 20-25 minutes.
For the purposes of the study, we need you to take part along with two other persons. If you are a son/daughter, you should take part with one of your parents and one of your best friends. If you are a parent, you should take part with one of your children and (possibly) one of his/her best friends. In both cases, the son/daughter (target participant) must be between 18 and 25 of age. You don't need to be together or to use the same computer.

Dog Care Survey
:: |
| |
Jill White
University of Southampton |
| |
This study is being conducted by the University of Southampton, School of Psychology as part of on-going research on dog owners and their dogs. It will take about 20 minutes to complete. In this study, you will be asked to complete a number of questions which explore your personality characteristics, family background, attitude towards dog ownership and how that relates to your interaction with your dog. It is hoped that this information will improve our understanding of the role of an owner's caregiving on their dog's behaviour.
Do you currently own a dog? Are you the primary carer for your dog in your household (i.e. are you the one who usually feeds and walks the dog)? Is at least one of your dogs over the age of 18 months? If you have answered yes to these questions, we would be grateful if you could complete the following questionnaire. It will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. The results of this study may be presented at conferences and may be submitted for publication in academic journals. All your responses will be completely anonymous. You will not be identifiable in any reports or publications that may result from this study. This study has been presented to and received approval from the Ethics Committee of the University of Southampton (approval reference: PG/04/56)

We are conducting research into panic disorder, a form of anxiety, and are looking for participants to spend roughly 10 minutes to help with our study.
No identifying details will be recorded on your questionnaire response so that your data will be completely anonymous and it will therefore not be possible to link your consent form to your questionnaire response or to the data arising from it. You will be assigned a code number to your data which only you will know, so if you wish to withdraw your data you will be able to do this by providing this to the investigator.

10 Minutes. In this experiment, we are testing a relatively new hypothesis about how, on the brain system level, reading takes place. Although reading is an important topic that has been studied for many decades, there are still many questions about how people learn to read. One potential application of our research is the development of new methods of reading instruction for people with dyslexia.

Sense of Community and Personality Research Study
:: |
| |
Kath Boekamp
Curtin University, Perth, Western Australiaonline pa |
| |
Most people know when they have a Sense of Community and when they don’t. There are many factors that contribute to the development of a Sense of Community. Some factors are Environmental (i.e., size of town/suburb), others are Individual factors (i.e. extroversion or optimism). Little research has been done on whether individual personality type factors have any bearing on how someone develops a Sense of Community.
I’d like to invite you to take part in a study which will provide information to help us understand how people connect to their community as well as how we might support and even improve these connections.
Each questionnaire includes instructions on the type of questions that will follow and the way to respond (such as giving a rating on a 5 point scale on how much you agree with a statement from very little to a lot). In total the survey should take you no longer than 30min, possibly less.
All your responses to the questionnaires and personal information will be kept absolutely confidential. Your name will be converted to a code number, and only the anonymous group average data from all participants will be used for any published research.

The aim of this study is to help us to make a selection of realistic-looking artificial faces for a later experiment. You will be asked to evaluate faces of 23 different virtual people. In some cases, we expect that the eyes will not look very realistic, in other cases the skin or the expression may be less than convincing.
Completing the entire survey will take about 30 minutes. You will be asked to judge how realistic the eyes and faces look, and how sad the faces look as a whole.

We want to learn more about your general beliefs about the "fate" of close relationships, and, specifically, about how you personally construe the future of your own relationship. Such construals may be time-dependent and may be biased by current feelings of satisfaction.

Neutral traits and beliefs about racial groups

Elizabeth N. Bartmess
University of Michigan |
| |
We are interested in common beliefs about racial groups. This study is a pilot-test for a later series of studies. We are asking you to help us by acting as an informant on your society. In this study, you will rate how much members of the United States, in general, think a number of traits are seen in members of different races. We will also ask you to rate each trait on how negative or positive it is. Our goal is to develop, with your help, a set of traits that will accurately represent the general public’s beliefs for use in future studies. In exchange for your participation, we will tell you about some of our more interesting hypotheses, and you will have the option to learn more about our research as it progresses.
Although at this time we are primarily interested in representatives from the U.S., we would like to examine perceptions of U.S. beliefs by people from other nations as well - so we hope that if you are not from the U.S., you will still participate! Your data will be helpful to us in generating hypotheses for future studies.
