Introduction to the questionnaire

Thank you for agreeing to complete this questionnaire. Instead of using your name on this questionnaire, you will use a secret
number. Because you are using a number instead of your name, your answers will be kept private to the extent permitted by
law.

If you have more than one child, please answer the questions with respect to the child who is participating in this research
study with you.

Be sure to answer ALL of the questions honestly and carefully. If you are unsure of an answer, please give your best guess.
However, if you do not want to answer a particular question, you may skip it. The questionnaire is not a test—there are no
right or wrong answers.

If at any time during this questionnaire you would like to quit, then please click on the link in the corner of your screen that
says "Exit This Questionnaire" in order to exit the questionnaire.

Please ask a project staff member if you have questions while completing this questionnaire.

Thanks again for your assistance!
