As part of my graduate school dissertation research project I am
conducting a study about Sport Mindsets. I am seeking athletes who
might be willing to assist my research by completing a brief (10-15
minutes) online survey located at http://sportmindset.com .
Participation is anonymous and you are free to withdraw at any time.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Tony Pickering
University of Idaho

PS - If you choose to participate in the study please enter the number
903 when your group PIN is requested at the beginning of the survey.

It started off with a bunch of gobble-dy-gook trick questions rewording
essentially the same thing different ways. That was it for me. It's the
same nonsense we often see in these requests. Why do graduate school
students regress to the grade school level of questioning? I bet there
won't be many completions.

I agree! I also quit on the first page of questions. I hate those
re-worded type questions with levels of answers. Ask me a question and
let me answer yes, no, NA.
