[SCNR_INTRO]

Welcome to the Bright Insights Survey!

This research study is sponsored by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and led by RTI International (RTI). This research study asks people about nicotine and tobacco products.

You are being asked to answer a few questions to see if you are eligible for a survey of approximately 2,004 youth and young adults in the United States.

  • You may only answer these questions one time. Your participation is voluntary.

  • If you are eligible and complete the survey, you will receive a $5 gift card at the email address you provide within 1-2 weeks as a token of our appreciation. If you stop participating before you complete the survey, you will not receive a gift card. If we find that you have completed the survey more than once, you may not receive a gift card.

  • Please read our privacy policy [hyperlink to https://rti-co7.com/privacy/privacypolicy.html] before continuing.

  • If you have any questions about the survey, you can contact us at [email protected].

1. Yes, I agree

2. No, I do not want to answer questions


[ALL QS questions are required to determine eligibility; skips are not allowed.]


[SHOW TO FB RESPONDENTS ONLY]

[FB AUTH] An organization called RTI is doing a survey to learn more about people like you. RTI wants to make sure that the person who is taking the survey is who they say they are. We also want to make sure that people take the survey only once. Facebook will be helping us do this by making sure that you have a real Facebook account. This document will explain what kinds of information we or Facebook may learn about you if you click on the “agree” button.


When you click on “agree” you are allowing Facebook and RTI to collect certain information about you. The information will help Facebook check that you have a real account. We also collect information about you to help us make sure that one person is not taking the survey more than once. If you do not agree to allow Facebook and RTI to collect this information, you should not take this survey.


We will protect the information we collect about you as best as we can, but since this survey is online, there is a chance that other people may see information about you. This is a risk that comes along with using the Internet. We will do our best to make sure this does not happen.


1. I have read the Authorization Statement and agree to provide my information for such purposes.


2. I decline to provide my information for such purposes.
