A Clinical Psychology doctoral student from the School of Applied Psychology, Counseling and Family Therapy, Antioch University (SE) is conducting a study called the S.A.R.I. Study (South Asian Relationship and Intimacy). This first-time study is being conducted to determine the relationship between acculturation to mainstream North American culture and female sexual desire; and the relationship between enculturation to South Asian heritage culture and female sexual desire, as experienced by women age 19+ who identify as having South Asian ancestry, and are currently living in British Columbia. 

Participation in this study involves completing an anonymous online questionnaire which includes basic demographic questions, questions related to mainstream culture, heritage culture, and sexual desire.  The entire process will take approximately 10 minutes.  After completing the questionnaire participants will have the option of entering a computer-generated raffle for a chance to win 1 of 4 $100 pre-paid visa cash cards.  Please be assured that your contact information is not linked to your questionnaire. All responses are completely anonymous and cannot be traced back to any participants.
