Help UIC Researchers Understand Family Members' Attachments on Facebook

 

A group of researchers at UIC would like to understand parents' and high school students' use of Facebook and if this helps with school achievement.  If you are a high school student, we hope you will volunteer and invite one of your parents to participate as well.  Your answers will be confidential in that we will have no way to contact you directly.  We plan to combine scores from hundreds of students to help researchers understand how Facebook is used by students and their parents.
