Hello,

This email is from members of the Immigrant Psychology research group

at

the University of Michigan, led by Prof. Ramaswami Mahalingam, and we

are writing to you to request your participation in a study about the

experiences and beliefs of Asian immigrants and 2nd generation Asian

Americans, a study we are currently conducting at the University of

Michigan. We are interested in finding out about your beliefs about

your cultural/ethnic background, your outlook on life regarding

achievement, success and roles in family and relationships, and your

coping experiences.

Our study is examining these beliefs and experiences in multiple

immigrant groups, and the current phase of research is looking at

people

of Chinese, Indian, and Korean ethnicity, including those who are

immigrants to the US (who were born in an Asian country and moved to

the

US) as well as people who were born in the US, to immigrant parents.

If you are of Chinese, Indian, or Korean ethnic background, and either

immigrated to the US or your parents immigrated here, and you are

interested in participating in this very important study, you can

click on the web address listed below, or simply copy and paste the

address into your web browser window. In order to protect the security

of the study ‘s website, and to allow access only for authorized

The survey contains 5 pages and usually takes about 45 minutes to

complete. Please be aware that you must finish it in one sitting (if

you only fill out one page and then stop, all of your data will be

lost)

so please allow enough time (about 45 minutes) to finish the entire

survey without rushing yourself. You will know that you have completed

the entire survey when you come to page 5, which has a ‘submit ‘ button

at the bottom. After clicking this button, you will be notified that

your data has been successfully submitted. Your name will not be

identified anywhere on the survey and all information you provide will

be kept strictly confidential during the research process, and will be

destroyed after the study ends.

Once again, we very much appreciate your participation in this

important

study. Please let us know if you have any questions or problems

accessing the website. Thank you so much for your time and help!
