...discussing matters of love, relationship, companionship, their lifestyle in terms of love and relationship.

I am doing a research paper on "Teen Companionship: How it affects their lifestyle" and would like to have a survey be done by your members, and also interview you (the admin/webmasters).

This topic is about teens (13-18) and their relationship issues (crush, dating, sex) where their lifestyle has drastically been altered do to negative, positive and other impacts from their relationships.
For example:
A teen boy has a crush on a girl, girl doesn't like him, boy is sad - does not excercise, emotional eating, sits around, progress in school lacks.
By doing this research I want to highlight the lifestyle changes that go along with the pros, cons of teen companionship.

I have yet to formulate a proper thesis - it is just a topic that I am going to be doing a research paper on for Sociology (Focusing on Families in Diverse Societies) class.

Please PM for more info. Thanks again!

I co-run a teen board with a friend. We're willing to post the survey questions on our forum and we'll tell our members they are free to PM us their answers.

However, what user answered what question would remain anonymous.

[mfinc]

Thanks for your interest, I will put you down, and contact you with more information. Also thanks for bringing that up. The survey is completly anonymous.

[mfinc]

Any other website willing to participate? The survey and information pack will be finished soon.

I'd post the survey on my forum. Just one note, though, you may want to make the questions gender unspecific so our gay and lesbian members can fully answer the survey (just going by your example question).

I tried contacting many of you who agreed to distribute the survey, but havn't gotten a response.

The survey is complete and can be sent for revision. The survey is being being coded now and will be finished this weekend by VRL.

Please email me at arunan[at]rogers.com and I will be glad to send and email with all the details and the survey to review. Whatever you don't want in it or if you could make suggestions would really help me.

Again this is just a bump of the post so people who agreed can follow up, and others who wish to participate can contact me.

I need to know what the status is. I am still looking for more sites to participate.

It is actually a research report. That will be published within newspapers, and if it passes all revision stages that it will be published in the annual reference books under the Youth and Adolescense headings.

All websites that participate will be meantioned if/when published. That is the benefit.

[evssadmin]

wow. sounds a great deal. :)
