Dear All,
I am writing a PhD thesis on language attitudes and I am looking for
professors working at British universities who could forward some
information to their students and ask them to fill in my Google Docs
online questionnaire. Below is the text I send to my respondents:
I am conducting research into language attitudes for my PhD thesis. I
am looking for native speakers of British English (mono- or bilingual)
aged 18 to 25 who would like anonymously to complete a questionnaire
that can be found at the following address:

formkey=dGpvcGZWdWlvWTFETGlNQWg0NHVVT2c6MA
The subject matter of my survey makes me prefer respondents who do
not specialise in sociolinguistics or normative linguistics. If you would
like to help me please visit the webpage and to take the questionnaire,
please provide the following password: mratajq13.
If your scholarly interests include sociolinguistics, normative linguistics
or the Slavic languages, in particular Polish, and you need advice,
information or linguistics-related translation, do not hesitate to contact
me via e-mail, providing the above-mentioned password in the title of
your message.
Thank you in advance.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact
your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company
operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
