[font=Times New Roman]I am a clinical psychology doctoral student at Eastern Michigan University. I am seeking volunteer participants to complete an anonymous web-based survey of parental attitudes concerning adolescent depression in order to better understand how relationships are affected by having a depressed child in the home. The study includes questions about your relationship with your child and what you believe about depression. Although there are no direct benefits to you, your participation in this study will provide information that could lead to greater understanding of depression and help with designing new treatment models for depression. This study will be published as a dissertation and the results may be used in scholarly journals.[/font] [font=Times New Roman]Your participation is voluntary, and your responses are anonymous. The survey does not ask you for any information that would identify you. Data are transmitted to a secure server. There is no penalty for not volunteering or for discontinuing at any time, and there are no known risks for participants. It should take 15-20 minutes to complete. [/font] [font=Times New Roman]I strongly encourage you to take part in the survey and contribute to the development of better methods of assessment that can be utilized to make treatment decisions and better methods of treatment that focus specifically on each individuals problems.
