Hello! My name is Jessica and I am a new member of this board. I have recently joined in on some research at UCLA involving the use of the internet by both autistic and not-autistic people. We would love to get opinions from people on this board. I don't want to spam the site by posting a link to the survey, but if you're interested, let me know and I can send it to you.

A little bit more about me, so I don't seem like some random person coming on here for no reason. I am a graduate of NYU, but I am now back in school taking some more classes and exploring my interest in Psychology. I became involved in this project through my studies. I'm happy to share anything else you guys would like to know

Provide more information on the requirements of the survey. Are you only asking a certain age group, the survey applicable to both autistics and neurotypicals?

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!

To anyone interested in the survey- we are looking for anyone and everyone to participate. We would like people with and without autism to see how people use the internet. It's a team from UCLA, so a very well-respected group. And, of course, all responses would remain confidential.

Thanks again- it's so nice to meet everyone!

What made you decide on Autistics as your study/comparaison group? Or are there other groups being invited to this study as well?

And by the way, Hi

Ps - Post the link.

Apologies for not submitting the link sooner, but I think there is a 5 post minimum here before you can post links to keep out spammers. Is there a private message option on this board? Feel free to PM me if you are interested in the survey!

Thanks again for the very very warm welcome, it's so nice of everyone!

I love psychology, too! Really, I do! I'm pretty much interested in personality psychology and cognitive, developmental, and emotional disorders, as well as behavioral problems, not just for others' sake, but for my sake, too. I'm trying to diagnose myself, because I just know that something must be wrong with my mind, but I'm not sure what. It's either Asperger's, a NVLD, William's Syndrome (although I don't have some of the physical characteristics or the heart murmurs of it), or something new altogether. Oh, and nice to meet you!
