Are you an African American living in the United States and have experienced racism? If you are an African American and have been impacted by racism, you may be eligible for this study. My name is Bryan P. Range and I am a doctoral candidate in the Psychological and Quantitative Foundations Department at the University of Iowa in the Marriage and Family Therapy program. I am seeking subjects to participate in this study to fulfill the requirements for my dissertation. The purpose of this project is to study the impact racism has on African Americans and to determine if a developed racial identity helps to decrease the negative impacts of racism or race-based trauma has for African Americans. Participants will be entered into a raffle for a $25 amazon gift card. Your participation will take no more than 30 minutes. It includes completing a questionnaire. If you think you fit the criteria of the study copy and paste the following Qualtrics link: https://uiowa.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3b008j1WEU6F8UJ If you choose not to participate in this study but know others who may fit the qualifications of this study, please feel free to forward this email to them. If you have any questions, please contact me at [email protected] or (319) 331-5950. Thank you for your time and consideration of this study!
