POF : Online Dating Study
Hello!
Would you be interested in completing a 5-10-minute anonymous research survey about online dating? If you are at least 18 years of age and have met a romantic or sexual partner online in the past 5 years (or are considering doing so), I would love to hear about your experiences!
If you decide to participate, you will be asked to respond to a series of general questions about online dating and specific questions about meeting a partner online. Participation is completely voluntary, and you may withdraw at any time without penalty. Not participating will not affect your relationship to UNC. You may benefit from participation by sharing or processing beliefs and feelings around online dating. Alternatively, you may find it distressing to share or process aspects of your intimate life and self-concept. To protect your identity as a research subject, all survey responses are anonymous, and no IP information is stored. You may enter a drawing for 1 of 10 $20 Visa gift cards at the end of the survey (email addresses used to enter drawings will not be linked to your responses).

This research project has been reviewed by the Institutional Review Board for Research Involving Human Subjects at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and determined to be exempted from federal human subjects research regulations (IRB#20-0716).
