Tuesday, 2/16/2010 7:00 PM-8:00 PM
If so, you are invited to participate in an hour-long focus group to learn more about undermining (or sabotaging) by romantic partners during weight loss. The first 15 women who reply to this announcement [by emailing aharp@clarku.edu with your name, email address, and phone number] will be called for a brief screening. Those who meet eligibility criteria will be given the location information for the event. The group will be restricted to 15 people. You will be asked to talk about your experiences with undermining, to generate a list of undermining behaviors your partner has engaged in, and to review and give your opinions on a list of questions that assess undermining. Participation is voluntary and may be withdrawn at any time without penalty. Those who participate in the focus group will be eligible for at least a 1 in 15 chance to win $50 to be awarded at the end of the session.
This study is being conducted by Amanda G. Harp, M.A., who is a graduate student in the Psychology Department at Clark University under the supervision of James V.
