Survey Request Received

As part of the Health Care and Corporate Use listservs of SL, I frequently discuss the use of SL for training, education, provision of certain types of health care services, and corporate use. This morning I received the following request and I pass it on to you. I explained to the investigator that the readership of my blog is a very diverse population spread across the globe, and that I felt sure many of you would be willing to participate in the study.

I completed the questions in about 7 minutes. There are only 3 demographic questions and one area for you to free text about your SL experience. The researcher hopes to be able to communicate via email with some participants; therefore, the option exists to provide this information to her.

from a scientific point of view. I need your

am looking for participants who are
willing to fill
