Dear Student,
My name is Fred Washburn and I am conducting a brief study on your feelings towards John (a fictitious person). I invite you to please take about 15 minutes and complete the survey. Some of you may be asked to take this survey again in two weeks. There is minimal risk to you in taking the survey. Possible risks include emotional discomfort when answering questions regarding your attitudes towards John. There are no direct benefits to you as a participant. Benefits to society include an improved understanding of your attitude towards people like John and what information may impact that attitude. I would appreciate your time and willingness to do this. It will be very beneficial to my research. To take the survey please follow this link:
