COVID-19

Hello all,

In response to the COVID-19 crisis, our lab is hard at work putting together a study of people’s experiences with the epidemic, their engagement/activism intentions, and how they believe this may affect their political intentions and priorities moving forward. We are very excited about this study and think it can be a great contribution to the ongoing analyses of the impact of this crisis. However, due to funding challenges and social distancing restrictions, sampling will be very difficult. To make this a success, we need participants!

Anyone 18 years or older in the U.S. will be eligible to participate, once the study is approved by JMU’s IRB.

Please follow me on Twitter (@btblaneknship), to receive updates. I will be posting the study link there, as soon as we receive IRB approval. My lab and i would greatly appreciate if you can participate, if able. We would also appreciate retweets and/or sharing the survey with family and friends. Thank you for your interest and support for this new research!
