A short description will be given. Participants will receive their individual personality type (with a detailed description) and can discover further information on their own. In the interest of time however, going over 16 personality types will not be possible during the 1-hour study.

Just wondering...isn't it sort of bad to be recruiting participants on Macinsiders seeing as how your study is related to social media and the majority of macinsiders members are in tune with that sort of thing. Hence having an effect on your results....(relative risk since it appears like this is a cohort study)?

For example...you wouldn't want to recruit participants for a study on the relation of the heart and fitness, by standing outside a gym.

That being said...I'd still participate if I was old enough.

Bio, I understand how it may be seen as that, however a requisite of this study is that participants are involved in social media. I have asked participants not to post on this board for interest, but instead to email me in order to limit any problems with confidentiality.

Don't worry, my recruitment on MacInsiders does not pose any potential Hawthorne effect or confirmation bias to my study. If it did I would have stuck with recruiting through my posters across campus.
