[ATTW-L] Invitation to complete a survey about professional academic writing processes

[Krista Sarraf]

Good Day.

My name is Krista Sarraf, and I am an English professor at West Virginia University. Dr. Dana Driscoll (Indiana University of Pennsylvania), Dr. Roger Beaty (Pennsylvania State University), and I are conducting research to explore how professional academic writers who publish in academic journals engage in writing processes and how semantic networks found in the brain may connect to these writing processes. Any faculty member or graduate student engaged in academic publishing may complete the survey: https://iup.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9HtLXb7nuQ8ZByK


The survey takes 10-15 minutes and has three short parts:

  1.  Demographics
  2.  Your writing processes
  3.  A 4-minute semantic brain network exercise

Participants may gain a greater sense of their own writing processes by participating in this study. Results of this study may be used to better understand and model the writing processes of expert academic writers and their relationship to brain networks, contributing to the fields of Rhetoric and Composition and Neuropsychology.

THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW BOARD FOR THE PROTECTION OF HUMAN SUBJECTS (PHONE 724.357.7730). (IRB Protocol #21-176-ONLINE.)

Thank you very much for your time and consideration. Please contact me
directly (krista.sarraf at mail.wvu.edu) if you have any questions or concerns.

Best,

Krista
