WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY?


For TAA group.

We can do the survey in more than one call, if necessary. I’d like to begin now and do as much as we can. Then, if you need to stop, I can call you back at your convenience to finish. Or, I can schedule a more convenient time to call you back. Which do you prefer?



WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON’T PARTICIPATE IN THE SURVEY?
