My name is Jeffrey Parsons. I am a doctoral candidate in counselor education at the University of Iowa. I am doing a study on Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing games and social factors that may lead to excessive MMORPG use. I am collecting data for this study through an online survey. This survey can be found at http://www.counselor-education.org/mmorpg/mmorpg.php . Additional information about the research study is presented on the web site. All responses are completely anonymous. Your participation in the study will greatly enhance our understanding of the factors encourage people to play online MMORPGs and will take approximately 5-10 minutes of your time. I hope that you will choose to participate. If you have any questions about this study, you can contact me at jeffrey-parsons@uiowa.edu.
