Hi!
You are receiving this email because you are a student at Clarkson University. Your email address was obtained with the permission of Clarkson University. Our names are Becky Guess and Maggie Monnat and we are second year PA students. We would like to invite you to participate in our research project. We are surveying students at Clarkson University who have played sports at any level of competition (this includes varsity athletes as well as those who play club, intramural, or pickup sports).
The title of our research is “Risk Factors for ACL Tears.” You do not need to have sustained an ACL injury in order to participate in the survey! The survey offers 10 multiple choice questions regarding your participation in athletics and risk factors for ACL tear and will be preceded by questions to gather demographic data. This survey is completely anonymous and should only take about 5 minutes to complete. Participation in this survey is completely voluntary and greatly appreciated. Following completion of the survey, you will be redirected to a “Thank You” page including the gift card entry form, which allows you to provide your name and email address, if you choose, to be entered to win one of three $10 gift cards to Amazon.com! If you have any questions you may email either Becky Guess (guessrl@clarkson.edu) or Maggie Monnat (monnatmm@clarkson.edu).
Thank you for your time!
