We are conducting a study to learn about the formation of social attitudes. Participation in our research project is voluntary. If you choose to participate, you will be asked a series of questions that may assess your attitudes toward lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, and same-sex marriage. You will also provide basic information about yourself. It is anticipated that it will take approximately 10-15 minutes to participate.

There are no known personal risks associated with participation. Participants can be assured that the information supplied will be completely anonymous, that is, no one will be able to identify you by your responses. Completion of this survey signifies your voluntary consent to participate in this research.
