Hello, my name is ShaShee Yang, and I am a Clinical Psychology Doctoral Student at Augsburg University. I am conducting a research study about the internalization of Model Minority Myth stereotypes and their impacts on depressive and anxiety symptoms in Asian-American college students. I would love for you to be a part of the study! The study will consist of a brief demographic survey and three standardized questionnaires asking questions about internalization of the Model Minority Myth, current depressive symptoms, and current anxiety symptoms. The entire survey should take approximately 15 to 30 minutes to complete. To thank you for your participation, upon completing the surveys, you will have the option to enter your information in a raffle for one of two $25 Caribou Coffee gift cards. If you are interested in participating, please contact me at the email address listed below. I appreciate you taking the time to consider being a part of my project.
