I’m sure that if you’re anything like me, you sometimes experience quite a bit of stress in different aspects of your day-to-day life.

Your partner must also be available and willing to participate - long distance is fine, since it’s all done online. Each of you will complete a set of background questionnaires that should take you no more than an hour to complete, and then each evening for five days (Monday-Friday), you’ll fill out a small online “diary” regarding stressors one of you experienced during the day and your reactions to them. This daily component will take you no more than 5-10 minutes a day, so your total time commitment for this survey is less than two hours. We have some great prizes available to thank you for your participation, including a grand prize of $1000 cash! Also available are four runner-up prizes: three $100 gift certificates to popular online stores, plus an iPod Nano. You’ll receive 50 participation points for completing the background questionnaires, plus 10 for each daily diary entry you complete. If you complete all five diary entries and the background questionnaires, you’ll also receive a bonus of 100 points (for a total of 200 points)! You’ll then be free to enter these points into the prize draws however you wish. There is also a follow-up study that will be available to you one month after you complete the diary portion. It will be examining the clarity and detail of peoples’ memories for relationship events. You’ll be asked to recall and describe three relationship events, and answer questionnaires relating to your memories of them. It should take you no more than one hour, and you’ll be rewarded with an additional 100 points for the prize draws!
