PARTICIPANTS IN THE STUDY

You are invited as a possible participant in this study because you are a member of the UAS online panel and have a compatible phone and phone plan.

About 3000 UAS members are expected to take part in the study. We are looking for people of all ages and in any health to participate across the country, to make sure everyone is fairly represented.


THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
Congratulations, you qualify for the study! This study is intended to help us compare how individuals who are retire spend their time relative to those who are working, and how these activities affect the mood, well-being, and decisions of individuals during working and non-working days. The study focuses on the activities and tasks people engage in, how much interaction they have with others, and how they feel during the day.

For that reason, we hope you will participate, no matter how much activity you do or don’t do, or how much interaction you may have with other people.
keyinfo2
STUDY PROCEDURES

If you decide to take part in this study, this is what will happen:
  • You will answer a few survey questions on your phone during three days out of a seven day period. You will be able to choose a seven-day period that works for you. We will randomly select two weekdays and one weekend day during that seven days.

  • On each of the three survey days, you will be prompted to answer the questions on your phone four times a day. You will receive these prompts at any time between 8am and 9pm. The questions take about 3 minutes to answer each time, so that is a total of 12 minutes per day.

  • You will answer the survey questions through the UAS phone app called "Zemi." We will provide instructions for how to get the app and log in using your usual UAS login number and password. The app was developed by the UAS team, so we can guarantee that it is private and secure.

  • At the end of each of the three survey days, preferably after 8pm, you will also complete an online time diary survey the way you usually fill out UAS surveys (using your smartphone or a laptop/computer). In this survey, you will report the activities you performed during that day until the time you complete the survey, and the activities you expect to perform until the time you go to bed. You will be asked to specify the start and end times for each activity. This time diary survey should take about 10-15 minutes to complete.

  • If you decide to participate, at the end of this survey, you will be able to schedule a start date that is convenient for you. You will receive an email by the next day verifying your participation dates. The email will also provide you with a participant guide that includes step-by-step instructions on how to install and use the UAS Zemi phone app.

  • On the first day of the study and for three days total, you will be notified by the app when it is time to fill out the questions. The app will use your phone’s notification system and text message reminders. You will get these prompts at four random times each day (within your preferred time window). You will have up to [randomizer prompt duration[]] after the prompt to find a quiet, safe place to respond, in case you are driving or busy. If you miss one prompt, that is not a problem. You will just do the next one. We will pay you for every prompt that you can answer.

  • At the end of each of the three survey days, we will send you an e-mail reminder to complete the end of day time diary survey.

  • After the end of the study, you will delete the app from your phone.
keyinfo3
TIME AND EARNINGS

Answering each prompt takes about 3 minutes. Answering the end of day time diary survey takes about 10-15 minutes. So, answering all four surveys and the time diary in a day takes about 18 minutes.

You will earn $2 each time you answer a 3-minute survey and $10 for answering the time diary survey. Hence, you can earn up to $18 per day or up to $54 for the week participating in this study.

We will credit your UAS account within 10 working days after the end of your participation week. Earnings from this project will be loaded onto your ClinCard, along with any other rewards you may have earned, following the usual monthly schedule.

RISKS OF PARTICIPATION

If you decide to take part in this study, the risks are the same as for any UAS survey. There is a small chance that your identity could be disclosed along with your survey answers. However, we work hard to safeguard your data and your privacy. If you have questions or want to learn more about what we do to protect you, we will tell you more about it on the next screen. You can also ask us at uashelp@uas.edu.


THERE ARE NO DIRECT BENEFITS

You will be compensated for the time you spend answering questions in each of the surveys you complete during the study week. There are no direct benefits to you. However, your participation could help researchers understand how job demands and leisure activities influence one another and how they jointly affect current mood and well-being, and future work and health.
keyinfo5
PROTECTING PRIVACY AND CONFIDENTIALITY

The information you provide during the study through the phone app will be collected and protected in the same way we protect all UAS survey data.

Only the UAS helpdesk staff who are authorized to communicate with you will know who you are, and they do not have access to your answers. Researchers at USC will not have access to your name or other identifiers.

We keep your data confidential. The UAS has a Certificate of Confidentiality from the National Institutes of Health that allows us to keep your identity confidential.

Your information may be made available in certain cases. For example, the Brany Institutional Review Board (Brany IRB) or Federal representatives could access your research records for the purpose of protecting human subjects in research projects. They will not disclose your personal identifying information to anyone else.
keyinfo6
HOW WILL THE DATA FROM THIS STUDY BE USED, NOW AND IN THE FUTURE?

Data from the study will be used only to produce research articles (scientific and popular), manuscripts, research posters, student theses, research briefs, and presentations at research meetings.

UAS staff may combine the data from this study with data from other UAS studies that you have participated in and contributed to. This includes UAS surveys and other UAS projects such as tracking activity or measuring the environment.

After the study, the UAS will securely store the data for use by this study team or other researchers doing similar or different kinds of research in the future.

If you do not wish for your data from this project to be used for these purposes, you should not participate in this study.
keyinfo7
VOLUNTARY PARTICIPATION

It is your choice whether to participate in this study. You can choose not to participate in this study and continue to be invited to take UAS surveys and participate in future UAS studies.

If you choose to join the study, you may change your mind and leave it at any time. Refusal to participate or stopping your participation will involve no penalty. You can either contact the UAS helpdesk to withdraw, or simply delete or log out of the app.

If you decide to withdraw from the study, you will be compensated for any part of the study that you completed.


CONTACT INFORMATION

Thank you for considering participating in our study! Here are some answers to frequently asked questions.

Q: Do I have to download something to my phone? Is it safe?
A: Yes, we have created our own safe and simple phone app, which has been approved for use by Android and Apple phones. Android users download the app from Google Play Store, and iPhone users from the Apple store. Simply type "Zemi" in the search box and download it on your phone. When the 7 days are over, you can remove the app from your phone.

Q: What exactly will I be doing?
A: If you decide to join this study, you will first indicate the date when you wish to start. Next, you will receive an email confirming your participation dates and providing you with detailed instructions about how to install the Zemi app on your phone and use it to answer survey questions. You will also receive instructions on how to access the online time diary to be completed at the end of each day you receive prompts. To start the study, you will have to log into the Zemi app using your UAS login number and password. Once you are logged in, you will indicate, for each day of the study, your preferred time window during which you will receive survey prompts.

On each of the three days during the study week, you will receive four random prompts on your phone. The prompts will be sent between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM. After each prompt, you will answer a short 2-minute survey using the Zemi app. You will have 30 minutes to complete a survey after the prompt. At the end of each of the three survey days, you will also complete an "End of Day" survey. The survey will take about 10-15 minutes.

Q: What if I can't respond to every prompt during the day?
A: We are asking you to only participate in the study if you think you will be able to answer all or most of the survey prompts each day. Of course, we do not want you to answer if you are driving, or at any time when it is not safe. To make sure you don’t miss a prompt, you should keep your phone nearby during the day while you are participating in this study. If you miss one prompt, that is not a problem. You will just do the next one. We will pay you for every prompt that you can answer.

Most participants find that they are able to manage to answer the prompts quite easily. However, if your work or your duties will not allow you to answer most or all of the beeps during the day, then this project may not be for you.

Q: What is the end of day time diary survey?
A: The end of day survey is an online time diary survey that we will ask you to complete at the end of each of the three days you will receive prompts. You can complete this survey in the same way you usually fill out UAS surveys (using your smartphone or a laptop/computer). You will be asked to report the activities you performed over the last 24 hours, divided in 15-minute time slots and starting at 4 AM. This time diary survey should take about 10-15 minutes to complete.

Q: How much time does it take and how much will I earn for participating?
A: Answering the survey questions takes about 3 minutes. Completing the time diary takes about 10-15 minutes. So, answering the four prompts and the time diary in a day takes about 12 minutes. You will earn $2 each time you answer a 3-minute survey and $10 for completing the time diary. Hence, you can earn up to $18 per day or up to $54 for the week of this study.
