We are a team of researchers from the University of California, Davis, consisting of postdoctorate, graduate and undergraduate researchers. We are interested in learning about furries as individuals as well as furries as a community.
We have developed a survey that covers several aspects of the furry lifestyle, including relationships and personal experiences. Please note that all demographic information is used to prevent duplicate data and not for identification purposes. Also, all questions are optional and you can skip any questions you don't want to answer.
It is important to note that our study has been approved by IRB (The Institutional Review Board) and that every researcher is trained and certified in Human Research Protection. Only trained researchers will have access to the data and everything will be kept strictly confidential. No information will be traced back to participants, and participants will not be contacted unless they contact us first, directly through email.
Also, once all the responses have been gathered and analyzed, we will be posting a summary of the results. However, no personal or confidential information will be posted, that is, any free response questions will not be made public. All information will be summarized, pertaining to furries as a community, before being posted.
If you have any questions or concerns, please email us at: StudyF3@gmail.com

Please provide the name and contact details (email preferred) of a supervising professor or other responsible party (an employee of the university involved in educational duties) who would have knowledge of your actions and whom I can independently contact with regards to this survey. If I am satisfied with the response, I will provide it to the group along with your original post.

We've tried sending a couple emails to you at lj_notify@livejournal.com and just wanted to verify that whether or not they got to you?
Thanks
