Sharon Denniston, a PhD candidate in public policy is doing a study on registrants to present at the ATSA conference. She is in need of additional participants who meet certain requirements. Her post is below:

 

 

Folks,

Good news!  I have enough participants in my control group now!    Also, I was thrilled to get 4 new registrant or former registrant responses since Friday.  Thank you so much!   Keep up the good work urging people to take my study.  The bad news is, I did not reach my participant count goal to complete data collection by August 1st, so now I need responses as soon as possible so I can have a valid study, do my analysis and prep for my presentation at the ATSA Conference in Montreal this October.  And of course, I need to finish the last 2 chapters of my dissertation with my findings and conclusion.

 

I still need the following more participants to assure the validity of my findings:

 

8 to 10 –  that are currently still registering for an offense that occurred when they were less than 18

15        –  that formerly registered for an offense that occurred when they were less than 18

 

Again, participants must currently be between 21 and 39 years of age.  Participation is online, and anonymous.

 

For your convenience, here’s the link to the survey that you can pass along:    https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/JSORSurvey

 

Here’s what participation looks like by state so far.  As you can see, many states are sorely under-represented!!

 

California – 1
Florida – 1
Illinois – 2
Massachusetts – 1
Michigan – 18

New York – 1
Ohio – 1
Texas – 2

Pennsylvania – 2

Tennessee – 1

 

Thanks again.  I apologize for my persistence.  I’m really hoping to drive this home as soon as possible (no later than Aug. 15th).   I can’t wait to share my findings with all of you!
