$10-$25 GC - 5 Week Personal Lubricant Study - Women 18 and Older

[pepper60]

Our research team at Indiana University is recruiting adult women
(18
and older) to participate in what is, to our knowledge, the first ever
systematic study of lubricant use among women.

Many women use lubricants during sexual activity alone or with a
partner and for many different reasons including to make sex more comfortable, to reduce pain, to reduce the risk of tearing during sex,
to feel more pleasure, because they are curious, or because their
partner wants to use a lubricant. Other women have never used a lubricant during sexual activity that occurs alone or with a partner.

The study that we are recruiting for, the Women’s Sexual Health Study,
takes place entirely online. Women who participate in the study will
receive three bottles of water-based lubricant or silicone-based lubricant
and will be asked to use it during sexual activity that occurs
alone or with a partner, and to respond to online questionnaires about
their experiences.

Please feel free to forward this email to colleagues, friends or members
of your organization who may be interested in learning more about this
study. Women who would like to read additional information about the
study and decide whether they would like to participate can go to this
web site: http://womenshealth.iu.edu

If you have additional questions about the study, please feel free to
send us an email at cshp@indiana.edu (cshp@indiana.edu) or call 812.855.0364.

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards,

[Kelly]

ya it's supposed to be daily.
just try logging onto the website and then logging in with your email addy and password

[BuckeyeGirl]

I recall reading about this whole testing/survey.....I read where to qualify for the $25 GC you have to do their diary daily...(5 days/week) so I assume we will not get them on the weekend.

[Kelly]

i dont recall. i just took the survey and i am almost positive i took it yesterday too. i thought it was every day for 35 days. i will look into it tomorrow. i am off to sleep now:thumbsup:

[pepper60]

Lots of work for a $25 GC....good luck everyone. I looked over
the web site for more info but didn't see anything specifically
about whether you have to do the diary on the weekends.

[Kelly]

ya i didnt see it either. guess we will wait and see

[BuckeyeGirl]

I got a survey today....I'm going to e-mail the lady and ask her about not receiving a survey yesterday.

[Kelly]

[BuckeyeGirl]

It was in my regular email box like it usually is :)

[N~Key]

No survey on Saturday but i got one on Sunday...

[kutikat]

I didn't get one on Sat. either I sent the email so I guess we will see what they say. I did get one for Sunday though.

[Kelly]

i didnt see an email from them yesterday (sunday) and then when i just checked again it was there along with todays!!

[N~Key]

Got the survey twice today...maybe they want to compensate for missed survey :0happy0194:

[Kelly]

i did tooi dunno

[N~Key]

Got an email from them

Thank you for your email and for your participation in the study. We apologize that you did not receive your daily reminder. The daily reminder emails are courtesy reminders, meaning that you don't have to wait for a reminder email to go online and complete the survey, as it is the same web site every day.
That web site is: https://www.indiana.edu/~whs/login.php

[Kelly]

hmm, i wish you could just log on every couple days or so if you wanted to and do the surveys that way. it stinks that you have to log on every day for this. i forgot last night.

[Kelly]

anyone know what day they are on for the study? it says it at the very beginning of the survey in the top right corner. i think i missed a few days when my internet was screwed up so after i finished one day i logged back in and it took me to the next day. i did that a few times and i am not sure if i am even up to the right day yet or not. i dunnoi dunnoi dunno

[Kelly]

anyone else know what day they are on? i dont want to do todays survey incase i went too fari dunno

[N~Key]

I too missed a few days...so mailed them today about what to do, waiting for their reply will let you know once i get it

[collinsmom]

each email is coded for that day just do the one you missed from the corrects days email
im done with survey now

[Kelly]

thanks for the info, i am done now too. when do we get compensated? anyone know?

[N~Key]

Got a $25 GC from them today. The GC can be used to shop online at www.pureromance.com[url]

[kutikat]

Got my $25 gift card today too!

[Kelly]

thought it was going to be a cash gift cardboo hoo

[Kelly]

got my $25 gift card also

[sinfulenigma]

I got my gift card too but they sure don't have much to offer on their site. Anyone else checked it out? Also they didn't tell us before that when you use your gift card you have to fill out your credit card info so they can verify your age, not crazy about that idea of giving them credit card info. Did anyones card come with tape across the back expiration date? Mine expired 2 years ago lol. I'm sure they will still honor it but I thought it was odd.

[Kelly]

mine has tape too on the back. and i didnt even try to use it yet so i didnt know that they wanted credit card info. i think i will email them. not crazy about that myself.

[sinfulenigma]

That was what it said in the letter that came with the gift card said, I haven't tried to use the gift card to see.
