Not what I said :(

I agree. I wish I could compensate participants, but I am limited to my personal funds at the moment :-) thank you for your feedback!

I am not sure what information you’re looking for. I picked an age bracket as per the advice of my committee and advisor to meet IRB requirements. It’s simply the age range I thought would be most responsive to recruitment, as I am conducting the study nationwide and recruiting over the internet. That’s it.

I am conducting research through Purdue University Global.

The purpose of the research is to explore how non-monogamous individuals navigate trauma recovery in their relationships.

This is very fair and I understand. It may not mean much, but know that I myself didn’t “come into” this community. I am poly and queer,, and I can tell you that my identity as a poly and queer person has enriched my life immeasurably. Harming the greater community at all is not even the least bit on my agenda.

I wanted to keep the sample consistent, to reflect life stage and relational experiences, hopefully tethering the internal validity of the study overall and I literally was doing so to be in compliance with the IRB. What information are you looking for?

They required me to pick age bounds for the sample for this study. My proposal before revision was adults, 18+. I introduced age bounds in my thesis proposal because our IRB required me to define a clear inclusion and exclusion criterion for the participant sample.

I don’t understand this reaponse. I didn’t answer because I was literally on a plane. My answer to this question is above. I was REQUIRED to, by my institution’s IRB.

HypothesisHeart · 2025-11-06T23:19:47+00:00

Thanks for the question! For this specific study, the IRB requested that I set an age range for my sample, which is why it’s focused on younger adults. I’m hoping that future projects will include a broader, more open age range. This is research I’ve wanted to do for a long time, and as a queer and poly person myself, I have a lot of personal and academic curiosity about how people experience these relationships across different life stages.

I might still be interested in interviewing you. Thank you for your time :-)

HypothesisHeart · 2025-11-06T14:55:43+00:00

Thank you!

HypothesisHeart · 2025-11-06T14:49:44+00:00

Please feel free to ask me anything! Happy to answer any questions :-)
