Carleton University - Carnegie Community Engagement Classification - Canadian Pilot Cohort - Simon Fraser University

We are looking for volunteers for a survey study of older adults` security and privacy concerns when using technologies in Canada. This project aims to understand the main technology security and privacy concerns, experiences and mitigation strategies of older adults who are living in Canada. Participants will receive a $5 gift certificate of their choice (Tim Horton's or Starbucks). The study can be completed online or through a telephone call.

You will be asked to answer a pre-screening questionnaire with demographic questions and insert your email. We will follow up with an individual link to the main questionnaire. Once you have completed the main questionnaire, we will send you the gift certificate.

To be eligible, you must be 65+ years of age, comfortable with English, and live in Canada.

The study will be fully online and should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. If you are interested, please complete the questions in the following link:
