Participants Sought for Study
Dr. Joanne Zinger, a faculty member in the Department of Psychology and Social Behavior is conducting a research study in which she is looking for students who are planning to take the MCAT, LSAT, or PCAT sometime in the next year or so. This study is not at all associated with the Priceton Review, Kaplan Test Prep, or any one of those courses, but she is basically interested in finding about the lives of students who are preparing to take one of these major exams. If you participate in her study, she would like to talk to you on the phone a few times to ask you questions about your mood, personality, health, and studying habits, she would have you come to her office for one visit, and she would ask you to fill out a very short survey right before and right after your exam that asks you how you are feeling at that moment. The phone interviews and the office visit would be arranged totally around your schedule, and you would be paid $25 (or given 3 experimetrix credits) to thank you for your help. If you think you would like to participate, please call Dr. Zinger at (951) 662-3735 or send her an email at joanne.zinger@yahoo.com .
