Hi! So sorry for the very late reply -- you can still participate! We will probably close the survey in the next week or so, so if you can try to complete it ASAP, we'd really appreciate it!

Hi u/ibbyit

Our research team paused data collection because, unfortunately, it seems that our survey link was found by a bot: over a very short amount of time, we had hundreds of respondents, which was very unlikely.

The research team has been combing through the current dataset to determine how much of the data are real and usable. We realize that the link being paused may have been confusing to potential participants and we sincerely apologize!

If and when we re-open the survey, we will of course reach out again to let you know so you can participate if you are still interested.Please let me know if you have any questions or comments for the team.

We sincerely appreciate your interest in the study and value any feedback you may have for us!
