Research request - parenting and food

[squirrely girl]

Kind of random, but for those of you who don't know, I'm a psychology graduate student. I am conducting a study about cultural similarities and differences in eating patterns, nutrition knowledge, and attitudes about body shape and size among preschool age children and their parents.

For this study I am specifically interested in recruiting participants who identify as being Caucasian American or Mexican American and have a child between the ages of 4 and 6.

I am asking the parent to complete an online questionnaire for this study. As compensation, if you decide to provide your contact information when you complete the survey, you will be entered into a drawing for one of four $50 gift certificates to an online store (i.e. Toys R Us, Target, Wal-Mart, etc.)

You can access the survey in English from the following URL:

The surveys are also available in Spanish:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?s...fwLV3Ovg_3d_3d

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated as I would LOVE to finish my degree in this decade!

I'm not a parent, but can I forward this to friends who are parents of children within that age range?
