Check out these opportunities for Directed Research!

Our names are Abigail Glastetter and Austin Hacker, and we are in our third year in the PsyD program at Spalding University’s School of Professional Psychology. We are inviting you and others you may know to join in a study about undergraduate students in the United States. The purpose of this study is to explore the lived experiences of undergraduate students and understand how to better support them in academia.

By completing this survey, you can choose to be entered into a random drawing to win one of two $25 Visa gift cards.

To participate, you must be between 18 and 25 years old and currently attending a college or university in the United States of America. You will be asked to complete a brief online survey, answering questions regarding your experiences as a student and/or giftedness, which should take around 20 minutes to complete. These questions include your perception of educational experiences, how they impact your outlook on life and academics, and opinions on improved support. Your name will not be linked to your responses, and there is no penalty for withdrawing from this study at any time.

If you would like to complete the survey, please click the following link: https://spalding.questionpro.com/giftedsurvey

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to either of us at aglastetter@spalding.edu or ahacker@spalding.edu.
