Last Chance to Win a $20 Gift Card with a Quick Survey

submitted by furlongc@augsburg.edu

Hello, my name is Clark Furlong, and I am doing some original research through Augsburg University about current student’s perception of cannabis as an opiate alternative. If you could take this 7-question survey it would aid in better understanding the current state of public cannabis perception. To participate you need to be an adult (18+) living in the United States. The survey should take approximately 1-5 minutes. You would also enter for a chance to win a 20$ Amazon gift card (you will need to leave your email, but this information will be kept confidential). This class-based project has been designated IRB-Exempt from Augsburg University IRB, #2023-06-04. Click or copy this link to complete the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/G2GHSP7.
