  1. Yeah, I did post this about 3 weeks ago but I am still in need of more participants for my study so I wanted to post it again. Please help me out with this study by taking my survey. It doesn't take long and the results could have some great implications for sport psychology and the world of skiing and snowboarding. Here is the link: http://survey.utk.edu/mrIWeb/mrIWeb.dll?I.Project=SPORTINJURYANXIE I'm very grateful for anyone who takes the time to fill this out. Jess
  2. My name is Jessica Horton and I am currently a Masters student at the University of Tennessee in the field of Sport Psychology. Through my program, I am focusing mainly on the injury rehabilitation side of Sport Psychology and helping athletes to come back from injury not only physically, but mentally too. I am beginning to work on my thesis which is focusing on the relationship between anxiety and fear of injury among risk taking sports, specifically snowboarders and skiiers. The reason I am writing you is because I need some help with my thesis data collection. As you probably know, there are not an abundance of semi-professional or even professional snowboarders and skiiers in East Tennessee! As I'd like to make this study as publishable as possible and have strong implications for snowboarders, I want to get the best athletes possible. My thesis just requires my participants to take a short survey that won't take much time at all. If there is any way you can help me get in touch with some semi-professional, professional, or even retired snowboarders, or even steer me in the right direction, I'd greatly appreciate it! I look forward to hearing from you!:) If you could just reply to this thread or e-mail me at jhorto17@utk.edu, I'd greatly appreciate it!
  3. Thank you! I was looking for someway to do move it up but couldn't find it. I'm new at this if you couldn't tell :) That is a good update about my study.... I have had 25 people take the survey so far and need quite a few more to take it. Unfortunately, a lot of people have started to take it and not finished it so it times out.

  6. Hey everyone- If you try and access the survey and it times out on you while you are taking it, just start it over. Just don't take it completely more than once if you have submitted it. Thanks! Jessica
  7. Done and done. So how long have all of you been riding? I just learned last winter and am hooked. Going out to Park City in 10 days for 2 weeks to go boarding. Can't wait..
  8. Thank you all so much for your help. I posted the instructions and link to the survey above. Please take it and feel free to pass it along to anyone that you think might be able to help! I really appreciate it! Jess
  9. Thanks for your interest in the study I’m conducting to learn more about the thoughts and feelings of participants in high-risk sports. Your participation in the project is strictly voluntary. Should you decide to take part, just go to the web-link shown below in order to access the survey. However, it’s important that you only take the survey one time. Your completion and submission of the survey will constitute your informed consent to participate. Thank you again for your interest. I anticipate the results of this study will help researchers and practitioners understand more about what it’s like to be a high-risk athlete. Please let me know if you have any trouble with the survey. Best regards, Jessica Horton, MS candidate Link: http://survey.utk.edu/mrIWeb/mrIWeb.dll?I.Project=SPORTINJURYANXIE
  10. Hey- Thanks for responding! I have semi-professional defined in my literature as anyone who competes and does not get paid for it. Therefore, if you just compete in races without getting paid, you qualify. Professional is competing for monetary compensation. I'd like to get the best athletes possible; however, for my first go with this topic I'm just trying to get anyone who competes! Maybe in the future I can aim for getting in touch with Olympic athletes. Please let me know if you can help me out by taking the survey. It doesn't take long and could produce some really great information for high-risk athletes! :)
