Brief Cyberbullying Survey - Your Response is Requested

[Julie Luker <juliemluker () GMAIL COM>]

Greetings,

My name is Julie Luker. I am a doctoral candidate in the School of
Education at Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota. You are invited to
complete an online Cyberbullying Survey* that I am conducting as part of my
dissertation. My dissertation explores perceptions of cyberbullying within
higher education. This study was approved by the Hamline University Human
Subjects Research review board in December of 2014. An assumption that I am
making with this invitation to participate is that you are familiar with
the concept of cyberbullying. If you agree to participate, you will
complete the online survey using Survey Monkey, an online survey software
program. Completing the Cyberbullying Survey will take about 15 minutes.
Please only complete the survey one time.

There is little to no risk involved in participating in this pilot study.
If you agree to participate, your identifying information will be protected
and your responses will remain anonymous. The results of this study,
however, are public scholarship that will be catalogued in Hamline’s *Bush
Library Digital Commons*, a searchable electronic repository, and that may
be published or used in other ways. You may decide not to participate at
any time without negative consequences. If you need additional information,
please contact me via email: jluker01 () hamline edu.



Sincerely,

Julie Luker
