:: 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)

:: 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.

:: Dissociation and Second Life ::
  Francesca Collins
Monash University
  Dissociation is when conscious mental processes are compartmentalised from each other. For example, day-dreaming, zoning out while playing computer games and holding a conversation while driving in heavy traffic all involve dissociation of consciousness. The Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES) has been used to measure dissociation for over twenty years. I have found that the questionnaire is equally valid and reliable whether it is delivered via pen and paper or via the Web. Now I would like to find out whether it is just as valid and reliable when delivered in a virtual world like Second Life. Participation involves completing the DES, a 28-question questionnaire which takes about 10 minutes to complete and can be done in your own time. All you need is access to Second Life.

California State University, San Bernardinoonline pa
  Breast implants, acrylic fingernails, daily workouts at the gym as docile as this list may seem it has important ramifications regarding the outward expression of our internal selves to the rest of the world. When people alter their physical appearance, they are nonverbally trying to communicate something to the rest of society. Body-modification is the practice of altering ones physical appearance via piercings or tattoos. Although body-modifications are traditionally looked upon as eccentric, they are increasingly becoming fashionable adornments in today's western culture. In this study we are looking at what effects emotions have on the motivation for the acquisition of body-modifications.
