This is to state that I agree to participate in a program of research being conducted by Mark Ambrose Harris.

A. PURPOSE
I have been informed that the purpose of the research is as follows: to investigate the relationship between music and sex, specifically which types of music people use for sex, and how music affects what the body remembers.

B. PROCEDURES
The research will take place primarily on-line. Participants are invited to send their responses via e-mail, and all participants, unless they indicate otherwise, will have their responses published on the project's blog. Participants' responses may also be published elsewhere. All participants are free to chose how they wish to be represented, either with their real name, a pseudonym, or anonymous.

C. RISKS AND BENEFITS
There is the potential risk that even if a participant remains anonymous, their story or song selection may indicate their true identity should someone they know recognize the story or song selection.

One of the benefits of participating in this project is that all participants will receive a Sound Sex Project .ZIP file containing a Sound Sex Project music compilation.

D. CONDITIONS OF PARTICIPATION

• I understand that I am free to withdraw my consent and discontinue my participation at
anytime without negative consequences.

• I understand that my participation in this study can be CONFIDENTIAL (i.e., the researcher will know, but will not disclose my identity)
OR NON-CONFIDENTIAL (i.e., my identity will be revealed in study results), depending on how I choose to be represented.

• I understand that the data from this study may be published.
I HAVE CAREFULLY STUDIED THE ABOVE AND UNDERSTAND THIS AGREEMENT. I
FREELY CONSENT AND VOLUNTARILY AGREE TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS STUDY.
