New Jersey Parents Survey

Rutgers University is asking for your help on an important study surveying New Jersey parents. Your participation is incredibly important, as only about 800 parents statewide in New Jersey have been randomly selected to take part in this study. This survey should only take about 10 minutes.

Your answers are confidential and will only be reported in combination with others. Your participation is voluntary, you may end at any time, and you may skip questions you do not want to answer without penalty. All data will be securely stored with access limited to members of our research team.

Confidential means that the research records will include some information about you, and this information will be stored in such a manner that some linkage between your identity and the response in the research exists. All data will be stored on independent secured sites with access limited to members of the research team. After information that could identify you has been removed, de-identified information collected for this research may be used by or distributed to investigators for other research without obtaining additional permission from you.

As a thank you for completing our survey, we would like to offer you a $10 Amazon gift card. If you are eligible to participate, you will be re-directed to a link at the end of the survey. After providing us with your email, which will not be linked in any way with your survey responses, your gift card will be processed and sent to the email you provided.

If you have any questions about this research project, you may contact Dr. Ashley Koning, director of the Eagleton Center for Public Interest Polling, by email at akoning@rutgers.edu or by phone at 848-932-8995.
