Again, with all due respect with you, your mentor and the McNair Scholar Program, you will earn and learn from our answers. You will receive most or all of the compensation (in any form) and those offering their answers, will continue to go unrewarded. I guess it will up to the individuals to determine what they wish to offer you free without the benefits. Best Wishes In a message dated 6/10/2008 6:07:23 P.M.

Hello I am sorry but unfortunately because it is only undergraduate research, we do not have the funds to pay for participation. All I can offer you is the chance to help a fellow quad/college student earn credit and funds for school. I am currently working on my BS in Psychology and plan on getting my MA in occupational therapy. Here is a brief description of the McNair Scholar’s Program which I am doing the research for: Program Description This program prepares participants for doctoral studies through involvement in research and other scholarly activities. Participants are from disadvantaged backgrounds and have demonstrated strong academic potential. Institutions work closely with participants as they complete their undergraduate requirements. Institutions encourage participants to enroll in graduate programs and then track their progress through to the successful completion of advanced degrees. The goal is to increase the attainment of Ph.D. degrees by students from underrepresented segments of society. Types of Projects Projects provide: academic counseling, financial aid assistance, mentoring, research opportunities, seminars, summer internships, and tutoring. Guidance for students seeking admission and financial aid for graduate programs also is supported. All information about the Ronald E. McNair Post baccalaureate Achievement Program came from _http://www.ed.gov/programs/triomcnair/index.html_ (http://www.ed.gov/programs/triomcnair/index.html) . Participation would be appreciated and feel free to tell anyone you know. Thank you Lucas PS All who have already respond I will be replying to you shortly. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Fri, 6 Jun 2008 1:21 PM Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Undergraduate Research Study Greetings, With all due respect to you, your mentor and the study you are doing, what about the Quads? I recently finished another survey being offered by another university doing a Neuro study and offering those who complete their study (also 15 minutes) a $20 gift certificate. Before I take the time to offer personal information for any study, I want to consider how I and others will be compensated. Anyone else interested in the study I just finished please let me know and I'll provide the link. Best Wishes W In a message dated 6/6/2008 1:05:41 P.M.

I am currently an undergraduate student at Lamar University and participating in the McNair Scholar’s Program. I am working on a research paper concerning the different administrations of the prescription drug Baclofen. The project is being overseen by Dr. Judith Mann, a Assistant Professor in the Psychology Department. I am looking for participants who have a traumatic spinal cord injury and regularly consume baclofen in either the oral (by mouth) or intrathecal (via a baclofen pump) forms, as well as the combination. You must be at least 18 years of age to participate. If you choose to participate, you will be emailed two surveys that should take about 15 minutes to complete. All of your information will remain completely anonymous and confidential. Participation is voluntary, so if you choose you may discontinue your involvement in the study at any time.
