Expression of interest for research project

Lmetha9009 on 29/05/2013 - 19:43

Hi everyone,

My name is Aaron Tham and I am a PhD researcher at Monash University. This is a post for an expression of interest to be part of my research in exploring the influence of social media on a destination choice context. As part of my research, face to face interviews are conducted with destination decision-makers with the following criteria:

1) Social media users (Facebook, Twitter, blogs, forums etc)
2) Made a destination decision in the last six months (could have already travelled or are about to travel)
3) Selected a destination that was relatively unfamiliar or visited for the first time (not including destinations chosen primarily to visit family and friends)

All research ethics have obtained the necessary clearance from the university ethics office and details of the interviews will be kept confidential, where participants will be de-identified through the use of pseudonyms.

I have obtained moderator permission to post this so if anyone is interested, please drop me a message and I will forward you the relevant details.

Thank you!

    Hi metha9009

    Are there any little incentives to do this, monetary or otherwise? This is ozbargain after all.

    Drop me a PM in any case, and if I can spare the time I'll consider participating.

    Are you limited to face 2 face, as otherwise I fit the criteria and might be interested?

    You should put the city where you are conducting these face to face interviews in the title. If you are coming on here and suggesting we donate our time to you, at least do NOT waste the time of the people who do not qualify due to this limitation.
