To the quad-list discussion group, My name is Andrea Nuernberger, and I am a Ph. D. student at UCSB in the geography department. My dissertation research focuses on how wheelchair and scooter users plan their trips and how they decide which route to take. Especially when traveling to unfamiliar places, wheelchair users are not provided the information they need to make confident decision about the route(s) they can safely travel. This often results in accidents, premature termination of a trip, or people not leaving their homes. To learn about wheelchair users� trip planning, I�ve published an online survey at http://research.survey.ucsb.edu/access/
If you are a wheelchair or scooter user and would like to support my work, please visit the link and consider completing the survey. The survey is anonymous (unless you choose to provide an e-mail address) and takes about 20 min. Since it is my goal to distribute the survey as widely as possible among adult wheelchair users, I welcome if you pass on the survey to other potential participants. If you have ideas about who else I could contact, please let me know. Thank you for your time. -- Andrea Nuernberger [EMAIL PROTECTED]
