    Hi I'm Maria Saavedra and I'm a graduate student at the University of Rochester. I'm writing my dissertation on mindfulness and relationships. If you are in a relationship and your partner is willing to complete the survey as well, it would be a HUGE help (and contribute to the pretty scarce literature about how mindfulness and meditation influence a relationship). The survey also provides feedback at the end. Please let me know if I'm posting this in the wrong place. I don't want to spam people, but I thought people interested in yoga and meditation might be interested. Thanks! The link and more info is below:

    In a relationship? At least 18 years old or older? Have a partner who might do a survey with you?

    Psychology researchers at the University of Rochester are looking for couples in romantic relationships (from dating to marriage) to complete a short survey.

    Mindfulness in Relationships Survey is:
    -- Is VOLUNTARY
    -- COMPLETED ONLINE
    -- SHORT (takes 20-25 min to complete)
    -- Involves you and your partner both participating (at separate times)

    -- Offers extensive INDIVIDUAL FEEDBACK on your personality and your relationship
    - 3 empirically validated dimensions of personality
    - 11 empirically validated dimensions of individual & relationship functioning

    -- Includes optional follow-up surveys every 3rd month
    - Very brief surveys (10-15 min)
    - Occurring 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 months after the initial survey

    I completed the survey, was interesting, but I don't have a typical or "normal" relationship, so I hope I was still helpful in your studies. My husband and I have been married for 20 years, but I came out (gay) after 3 years together. We have decided to stay married and do live together tho no sex life, and I have relationships with women, with his blessing. It works for us and we plan to keep it that way. I hope this helps you .
