Good Morning,

 Hello, we would like to ask you to participate in an important survey about video games and personal preferences.  The survey will only take 10 minutes and your identity will be completely anonymous.  Please be aware that some questions may be interpreted as sensitive. For example, you will provide some basic information about yourself (e.g. age, gender, etc.).  If you are under 18 please disregard this e-mail and do not take the survey. If you have already taken this survey please do not take it again.

 By selecting the link below, you understand the purpose of the survey and that your participation is entirely voluntary.  If you have any questions concerning this survey before taking the survey, you may contact John Ventura at jventura@cbu.edu or 901-321-3429.  You may withdraw from the survey at any time without penalty and you are assured that your private information will remain anonymous.

 Below is the link to the survey:

 Since you are a current student or recent graduate at Christian Brothers University, your email address was obtained through the administration as part of a research project about video game usage.  Your input will help contribute in the understanding of why people play video games and the possible relations to their personal preferences.  It will be several months before we have collected and analyzed enough data to make a determination regarding any relationships. If you have any questions about the survey or would like to obtain the results from the study, please contact Matthew Ventura at mventura@fsu.edu or John Ventura at jventura@cbu.edu.

 Thank you for your participation.
