Research Study:
Targeted video messaging about emergency contraception via a social media platform
Why is this research being done?
The purpose is to learn more about the impact of using different types of educational content to educate women about emergency contraception and the impact of using social media to raise awareness.
What will happen in this research study?
If you agree, you will complete an online anonymous survey, which will take 5-10 minutes to complete. Participation is voluntary and you may stop the survey at any time.
What are the possible risks of participating in this study?
Some of the questions on the survey are of a sensitive nature. You may feel uncomfortable or embarrassed when answering certain questions. You may choose not to answer any question that you would prefer not to answer. You may also stop the survey at any time. Neither your name nor any identifying information will be included on the survey, so your answers will not be linked to you once the study is complete.
What are the benefits of participating in this study?
You may learn information about emergency birth control that could benefit you one day. Otherwise, there may be no direct benefit to you from participating in this study. We hope that what we learn from the study will help us deliver educational information about emergency birth control to women effectively using social media.
