Hi there,
I am conducting research looking at the relation between perceived 'racism' and mental health. Whilst much has been written on the subject from a sociological perspective, very little has ben written from psychological perspective, and using quantitative methods, in non-clinical populations. Much of what we know about the mental health of black people comes from research carried out on clinical populations. This information can not possibly reflect the true nature of the mental health of black and minority ethnic communities.
The BME Research Panel will be comprised of black and ethnic minority people living in the UK who might be interested in taking part in ongoing and future web-based research. Participation is entirely voluntary, and you can withdraw from the Panel at anytime. All information will be kept confidential, and not share with anyone else without your prior expressed permission. If you would like to register please go to:
http://myweb.lsbu.ac.uk/~demaynav/BMEPanel/RegistrationForm.htm
In addition, it would be useful for the black and minority ethnic community to learn somehting about how black people process racist information, and what effect this information has on how blackpeople see themsevles in relation with others, from a psychological perspective. I am, therefore, conducting research in the UK, looking at the relation between perceived 'racism' and mental health in black men of African and African Caribbean descent, and would like participants to help in this venture by completing the on-line questionnaire which can be found at the following link:
http://myweb.lsbu.ac.uk/~demaynav/Research/ResearchQuestionsB.htm
The research wil be carried out in collaboration with ' Faculty of Health and Social Care' at London South Bank University, and the findings will be disseminated by conference and peer reviewed articles.
Yours Sincerely,
V. A. De Maynard

Verney, not trying to knock your post but i think you should alter it a bit for a better response. Firstly, the title mentioning the prizes - i thought that was some kind of spam. I think you might get a bit more interest if you give more info on why you are doing the research, what it is for and how the whole study is going to be conducted.
I also think you might need to clarify what exactly you think perceived 'racism' is because by using the word 'perceived' you could be insinuating that racism is a perception and not the reality for every black male that it actually is.
If you are a black academic/student doing worthwhile work then people will probably help you out- but a bit more explanation is needed first. Hope ive not offended you, but i wouldnt want you to miss out on volunteers just because your approach isnt quite right.

@girl21, exactly. I suggested the same thing to Verney ages ago. Even if he/she was contributing to the threads thus becoming know to the very people he is targetting may produce more fruitful responses
