This message is posted with Techwr-l list owner permission. Below you will
find a call for research data from Sandrine Poissonnet. I told Sandrine that
Technical Communicators are very helpful, especially those who subscribe to
Techwr-l. So with that report, she agreed to broaden her call for research
to a larger audience.

Since her project is funded, she will send you a monetary thank you to the
first 200 responses. Details are in the body of her message below. 

Sandrine is legitimately associated with UCLA and she is a person of high
integrity.

Hello,

My name is Sandrine Poissonnet, I am a doctoral candidate 
in management at the University of California at Los 
Angeles (UCLA). I am writing to seek your participation in 
a survey I am conducting as part of my dissertation work. 
In a nutshell, this research project compares the impact of 
communication behavior, meaning attached to working, 
supervisory style, and a variety of job characteristics on 
several job outcomes in two different work contexts: 
onsite work ("at the office") versus telecommuting 
(where a telecommuter is an employee who works part or all 
of his/her work week at a location remote from a company 
office: more often his/her home, but also sometimes a 
telecenter, or some other remote location).
 
The questionnaire takes about 20-25 minutes to 
complete... To thank them for their time, participants 
receive a $20 check upon completion of the questionnaire. 
Aggregate survey results and reports are made available to 
participants.

If you are willing to participate, and you ARE NOT a 
telecommuter, please complete the questionnaire located at 
the following URL:
http://www.bol.ucla.edu/~spoisson/questionnaire1.html 

If you are willing to participate, and you ARE a 
telecommuter, please complete the questionnaire located at 
the following URL:
http://www.bol.ucla.edu/~spoisson/questionnaire2.html

Also, please note that this offer is valid for the first 
100 respondents who do not telecommute (respondents to 
questionnaire1) and the first 100 respondents who do 
telecommute (respondents to questionnaire2). After the 
target number of respondents has been reached in each case, 
the respective web questionnaire will be shut down.

I would greatly appreciate your participation in this 
survey. Please contact me for any question or concern you 
may have.
Sincerely,
 
Sandrine
