Greetings, my name is Aaron Blashill, and I’m a graduate student in the Clinical Psychology Ph.D. program at Saint Louis University. I, along with my faculty advisor, Dr. Vander Wal, am conducting a study examining body image and health in men. The current study has been approved by the IRB at Saint Louis University. We are hoping that you would be willing to assist us in our research. The study is a collection of several questions which are available to complete via an online survey. The estimated time to complete the survey is between 10 and 25 minutes. To show our appreciation to those who complete the survey, participants will have the option of selecting one of several charitable organizations to which the researchers will donate $1 per successfully completed survey. If you would be willing to complete this questionnaire and/or forward this message to other men who may be interested, we would greatly appreciate it. If you have any questions of concerns, feel free to contact myself (blashill@slu.edu) or Dr. Vander Wal (vanderjs@slu.edu). Below is a link to the online study:
