Hi, my name is Stephanie Tabashneck and I am a doctoral student at the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology in Boston, Massachusetts. I am conducting a study about the impact of the sex offender registry on juveniles who have sexually offended.

I am asking the parents or legal guardians of juveniles on the public, online sex offender registry to complete a survey. Participants must be over the age of 18 and must have a child on the sex offender registry. Completing the survey should take 15 to 30 minutes. There is no follow-up survey or additional requirements.

In appreciation of the time you spent assisting me in completing this study, you may choose to enter into a raffle for a $20 Amazon gift card. Instructions for entering the raffle will be found at the end of the survey.

Eligibility Criteria:
