Subject: Seeking Doctoral Students as Participants for Dissertation


Dear Dr. Bhat,


My name is Brett Gleason and I am currently a doctoral student at Old Dominion University in the Department of Counseling and Human Services. I am writing you today to ask a favor as the listed university liaison on the CACREP website. For my dissertation, I am exploring the lived experiences of doctoral level students in CACREP accredited counselor education programs regarding wellness, wellness promotion, and self-care practices. I am hoping that you could forward on the below message to your current doctoral level students. If you have any questions, I am happy to address them. If you believe that you have received this message as an error, I apologize.


Thank you for your time and I hope this semester finds you well.


Sincerely,


Brett Gleason, M.Ed.

Fellow doctoral students,


My name is Brett Gleason and I am a doctoral candidate at Old Dominion University. I am writing today to solicit your participation in my dissertation study. I will be exploring the lived experiences of doctoral level counseling students in regards to wellness, wellness promotion, and self-care practices.


The study is being conducted in two parts. First, a demographic survey (the link is available below) will gather data to ensure criterion sampling and maximum variation of interview participants. In order to be considered for the interview portion of the study, you must include your email in the first question of demographic survey. Your email address will only be seen by the primary researcher and the RPI. Once participants have been selected and contacted, any identifying information will be destroyed from the data. The demographic survey consists of a small amount of questions and is expected to take 3-5 minutes. The research team and committee members will determine maximum variation once we have received an appropriate number of completed surveys.


Secondly, participants selected from the demographic survey will be interviewed by the primary researcher (myself) either in-person, if allowed, or via online video conferencing. The interview is expected to take 45-60 minutes total. The primary researcher will transcribe the interviews and all identifying information from the interviews will be de-identified before data analysis takes place.


As a fellow doctoral student, I realize that time is precious. That’s why I am offering $10 Starbucks gift cards to participants selected for the interview portion of this study. If you are interested in being considered for an interview, please make sure you include your email address on the first question of the demographic survey.


You are eligible to participate in the study if you meet the following criteria:

·        You are currently enrolled as a doctoral student in a CACREP accredited counselor education program.

·        You have completed at least one full semester in your current doctoral program.


Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at bglea003 at odu.edu 
<mailto: bglea003 at odu.edu 
>. The link to the survey is at the bottom of this email.


Sincerely,


Brett K. Gleason, M.Ed.
