    Research

    Some schools have agreed to help conduct school safety research.

You have been asked to participate in a short anonymous online survey about bullying in your school. If you have any questions regarding this study, please contact Dr. Betty Ashbaker at betty_ashbaker@byu.edu or at (801) 422-8361.

    • The survey will only last 10-15 minutes
    • Taking this survey is voluntary. You can choose to stop participating even after you have started taking the survey.
    • I would like to participate in this research study.
