Vin Porter Date, ______________, 2009 Dear Parent or Legal Guardian, My name is Vin Porter. I am a doctoral candidate at The University of Alabama working with Dr. Mary Elizabeth Curtner-Smith in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies. I am contacting you with the permission of your child’s school principal and the Board of Education. I am conducting a study about being a victim of bullying. Bullying is a serious social problem in schools. The purpose of this study is to validate a survey, Children’s Bully Victim Scale (CBVS), that will measure children’s reasoning about being a victim of bullying. All children who are enrolled in the 5 th grade are eligible to participate in the study. The children will read four short stories about bullying and tell what they would do if they were the main character in the story and why. The computer survey will take about 25 minutes to complete. The survey will be completed during school hours. More details of the study are explained in the Parent Consent form that is attached to this letter. If after reading the Parent Consent form, you are willing for your child to help with the study, please sign both copies of the Parent Consent form and return one copy to your child’s teacher by (Month ________________, day _____), 2009. Keep one copy for your records. Thank you for considering letting your child help with this project. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, Vin Porter Vin Porter, Doctoral Candidate Educational Psychology The University of Alabama Box 870160 Tuscaloosa, Alabama 35487-0160 188
