| Are you a gay dad? Would you be willing to answer some confidential
questions about your life and about your family? The purpose of this study
is to examine the many ways families headed by gay fathers have been
created, explore how families function, and learn about the relationship
between partners.
The study consists of an online survey and will take approximately 25- 35
minutes of your time. To qualify for the study you have to identify as
male, a father, and gay, bisexual or homosexual and have at least one child
of any age; this child can be biological, adopted, foster, step, or other
child. You do not need to be the child's legal parent to participate. This
study has been approved by the University of Virginia IRB #2008-0407-00, and
I am working with Dr. Charlotte J. Patterson who is a Professor of
Psychology at the University of Virginia.
If you and/or your partner are interested in participating or want further
information please contact Samantha L. Tornello (Principal Investigator) via
email GayDadsStudy@gmail.com. She will send you a web link that you can use
to access the study.
Thank you for your interest and I hope to hear about your family soon!
Sincerely,
Samantha Tornello
