The Effects of Bodybuilding and Weightlifting Training Practices
on Mood in Adult Athletes






http://websurvey.rutgers.edu/training/



This survey, "The Effects of Bodybuilding and Weightlifting Training Pracitices on Mood in Adult Athletes", is being conducted by Pilar M. Sanjuan, M.S., Dr. James Langenbucher, and colleagues at Rutgers University. The goal of the study is to examine moods associated with bodybuilding and weightlifting practices. The survey will canvass these areas fairly briefly and will take about 20 minutes to complete. We plan to recruit approximately 500 respondents.

Your participation in this survey is completely VOLUNTARY. YOU MAY DECIDE NOT TO PARTICIPATE AT ANY TIME DURING THE SURVEY. If you would like to quit, just select the button below each page marked "Quit Survey".

In order to participate in this study you must be at least 18 years of age. There are no other limitations on your participation. We will NOT ask for any information which would positively identify you (e.g., name, social security number, etc.), and we will NOT attempt to identify you. Internet Protocol (IP) addresses will automatically be collected with each submission, in order to exclude duplicate submissions (the same person taking the survey twice) from the data. IP addresses are strings of digits that can be used to identify the computer from which the submission originated, but not the individual who made the submission. IP addresses will be recorded merely to ensure that there is only one response from each address -- we want to make sure that each person answers the survey only once, and to do that we need to keep a temporary log of IP addresses - but they will not be linked to your survey responses and they will be destroyed at the end of the study.

This research is confidential. Confidential means that the research records will include some information about you, such as your birthday and your IP address. I will keep this information confidential by limiting individual's access to the research data and keeping it in a secure location. The research team and the Institutional Review Board at Rutgers University are the only parties that will be allowed to see the data, except as may be required by law. If a report of this study is published, or the results are presented at a professional conference, only group results will be stated, unless you have agreed otherwise. Every effort will be made to insure the confidentiality of your responses. However, confidentiality cannot be guaranteed under all foreseeable circumstances, and it is highly unlikely, but conceivable, that confidentiality could somehow be compromised. No one will contact you further regarding the study unless you specifically request such contact by writing Pilar M. Sanjuan at The Center of Alcohol Studies, Rutgers University, 607 Allison Rd., Piscataway, NJ, 08854-8001, providing contact information along with a written request for contact to the researcher.

The questions of this survey will ask you specifically about the use of Schedule III drugs and other illegal/illicit drug use. It is possible that some of these questions may be upsetting to you. If that occurs the researchers will not provide counseling, but you may phone Dr. James Langenbucher, a licensed psychologist, at 732-445-0908, who will make every reasonable effort to encourage you to seek appropriate care. You may choose not to answer any questions that disturb you. If you have any questions about your participation in the study please contact the principal investigator, Pilar M. Sanjuan, M.S. at 732-241-9526.
