I'm not familiar with the specifics, but I know harry Reis, and this
appears to be an unusually interesting participation possibility.  So, I
knew you'd what to know of it...

Subject: Request for participation in an online humor study

Hello,

I am a social-personality psychology graduate student working with Harry
Reis at the University of Rochester. I would like to invite you to
participate in an online study conducted by one of our undergraduate
senior honors thesis students examining the role of sense of humor in
relationships.

In order to participate, you must be at least 18 years of age and
willing
to invite a friend or partner to participate in the study with you. We
will ask you to rate several jokes and answer questions about your
relationship with your friend, then contact your friend to complete the
same online survey. In exchange for your time, we will provide you with
feedback about how similar your sense of humor is to your friend's sense
of humor.

If you are interested in participating, please click on the link below
for
more information:

We would also appreciate it if you would pass this message along to your
students or others who may be interested in participating.

Thank you in advance for your assistance with this study!
