General Announcements

$10 Target gift card for research study participants

Hello Students,

My name is Darby Lindgren and I am a senior Exercise Science student and an URGO researcher this summer at Augsburg. I am investigating a modified version of the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) test in Division III male college soccer players and need healthy male Augsburg College students (ages 18-24) to participate in this study as part of the control group. You may not be currently a part of an Augsburg athletic team.

This study involves a one-hour visit to Kennedy Center Physiology lab (room 309) for Functional Movement Screen testing and a video of a single-leg squat. Participants will receive a $10 gift card to Target. You can come back after a week for further research testing and another $5 gift card.

You can reach me at: lindgre6@augsburg.edu to get more details or to schedule an appointment time.

Thank you!

$5 Cash Incentive for Research Study Participants

Hello Fellow Auggies!

My name is Anabel Chavez, a Social Psychology major and McNair Scholar at Augsburg College. I am conducting research this summer, and I would like to invite you to participate in my study!

This study measures how autobiographical memories can affect satisfaction in a romantic relationship. Therefore the study will ask for participants to disclose two personal relationship-defining memories. Participants are required to be at least 18 years of age and are currently in a romantic (but not marital) relationship. Participants are also required to have been in their current romantic relationship for at least 6 months (or longer).

The study contains two phases, one which requires you to complete an online survey on your own time or at home (5-10 minutes), and the second phase requires you to come to campus to take a more extensive survey (20-30 minutes). Participants will also receive a $5 cash compensation at this time.

For any further questions, concerns, or to schedule an appointment, please send me an e-mail at chavez@augsburg.edu

Thank You!
