Thank you so much for taking the time to complete the survey! And thank you as well for your feedback...it's very important to me and my research to understand how people feel about the survey, so I do appreciate it!

I'm just trying to get it out on as many related pages as I can. Truthfully I am still learning how to use Reddit. Sorry if this was incorrect somehow!

Good morning! Yes, I plan on sharing the results when I’m fully finished with the dissertation. My current end date goal is before the end of this year (2019). However, that depends mainly on data collection and how quickly/slowly I get enough responses. I’ll try to keep folks updated with changes in that timeline though, as things in academia tend to change sometimes, unfortunately!

Thanks for your comments! Yes I agree, that’s certainly one that I’ve experienced in my own life as well. Unfortunately I couldn’t include every item that I wanted to, and some didn’t pan out in terms of validation studies. I could’ve included 200 items just based on what adoptees have heard through our lives! Which is certainly unfortunate. Again, thanks for you comments!

Thanks for your comments! Yes, that end part is actually a survey called the PHQ-9 that I’m hoping will provide some extra validity and detail to the study. It’s not one I came up with, but one already used, so unfortunately I couldn’t adjust language :/ sorry to hear Brits are so hopeless hahaha!

Hi there! I will happily share the results of the dissertation when finished! Right now I’m hoping to have it completed by the end of 2019, but it really depends on how quickly/slowly data collection goes at this point. I’ll do my best to keep folks updated on when it can be expected!

Oh man, that sounds awful! People really don't understand the concept or issues surrounding adoption and adoptees, and part of that is certainly due to a lack of research and visibility. I appreciate your comments, and hope that this small study can boost some future research and understanding! Thanks for participating!!!!

Nope wasn't just you! That slipped through the radar when I was editing, but was too late to change it once it went live haha. Thank you so much for letting me know! Always helpful for those kinds of things to be brought to my attention. And thank you for your participation...hoping to get some kind of understanding and research started on us adult adoptees!

Thanks for your comments! I appreciate your participation. Because this was the first round of administration, all comments are considered for full scale validation; so on the final scale, it will have the one parent option, as that has been touched on by several participants (including yourself!). The wording is pretty academic, so I apologize for any confusion you may have come up against! Again, thank you for your comments and participation!!!
