Please see the full IRB-approved recruiting statement below, or let me know if you have any questions. I'll begin conducting interviews this month, but will continue collecting data for a while, so there is no rush to participate if you are currently slammed with mid-semester work. Just drop me an email (*do not* "reply all" this email, please) if you're interested and would like to be interviewed at some point over the next few months, and we can set up a time that works for you. Best regards, Lexi ____________________________ This study explores issues of time management and research productivity for scholars in a variety of higher-education settings in the United States. In particular, I want to hear about how you make time for research, and any productivity or time management techniques, tools, apps, programs, “hacks,” or advice you’ve tried or continue to use. I’m looking for scholars based in the United States from all walks of academic life – from early career researchers to full professors, from small liberal arts colleges to large R1 institutions, from tenure-track faculty to visiting scholars and post-doctoral fellows. You may consider yourself a highly productive researcher or someone who struggles to make time for research. All experiences and “experience levels” are encouraged to participate. The only requirement is that you have completed your PhD and work at a higher education institution in the United States in the fields of Humanities or Social Sciences. If you agree to be interviewed, you’ll be asked to participate in a semi-structured conversation with me for roughly 60 minutes, to be conducted and recorded via Zoom. Your participation is entirely voluntary; there is no compensation for participating, and no penalty for choosing not to participate or to withdraw from the study. You can withdraw your participation at any time and for any reason.The anticipated risks to participants are minimal; however, some participants may feel frustrated or demoralized talking about the expectations of academic publishing and obstacles to research productivity. All data collected will remain confidential as required by the law and institutional policy. All the information and methods in this study have been approved by the West Virginia Wesleyan College Institutional Review Board. Names will not be attached to any data and recorded responses will be kept in a secure location. Following completion of this research and analysis of the data, all audio-visual recordings of the interviews will be deleted; only anonymized transcripts will be kept for research purposes. In the event of injury or illness as direct result of participation in this research study, no compensation, financial or otherwise will be available from the researcher or West Virginia Wesleyan College. If you have any questions about this study, you may contact Alexis de Coning at deconing.a@wvwc.edu, or contact the chairperson of the IRRB, Dr. Mary Medlin, at medlin.m@wvwc.edu. If you would like to participate in this study, please contact Alexis de Coning at deconing.a@wvwc.edu. -- Assistant Professor of Communication Legal Studies Minor Coordinator Student Senate Faculty Representative she/her/hers _______________________________________________ The Air-L@listserv.aoir.org mailing list is provided by the Association of Internet Researchers http://aoir.org Subscribe, change options or unsubscribe at: http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org Join the Association of Internet Researchers: http://www.aoir.org/ References 1. mailto:alex@myra.org.uk 2. https://www.myra.org.uk/ 3. http://www.myra.org.uk/ 4. https://calendly.com/alex-bish
