About this study
Informed Consent and Description of Research
You are to participate in a research coordinated by Dr. Renata Cserjesi. The research is carried out by Raissa de Oliveira Negrao, PhD student of psychology, and MA students.
The aim of this study is to identify the existence of Positivity Effect (a bias towards positive information in attention and memory) and define its relation to the level of psychosocial development.
In this research, you will be asked to fill out a questionnaire regarding life psychosocial development. Then you need to perform one task that will last for about 20 minutes.
Participation is utterly voluntary. Performing the task and filling out the questionnaire is harmless, without any detrimental after-effects. It is possible to suspend participation so that it should not be tiresome. It is also possible to terminate participation at any time and to decline to answer questions without having to give reasons for this. Monetary compensation is not due for participation.
The results of this study will later be used in publications and will also be presented at scientific conferences. If requested, written or verbal information will be provided on these events.
Data will be collected anonymously during the study, and no other personal data will be obtained either.
No medical or laboratory report will be prepared about the results of the study.
By proceeding, you agree that data collected on your person - which cannot be identified as those belonging to your person - may be used for research purposes and that these will be accessible to other researchers. I reserve the right to terminate my participation at any time, in which case the data belonging to my person should be erased.
