Re: online religion test - do you believe in God?

Hi. I am a psychology professor doing research on people's religious
beliefs. I have developed a study to examine people's religious
beliefs in which the programs asks you to classify objects as real or
imaginary. At the end of the test, the study gives you feedback about
your performance which may give you some ideas about your conscious or
unconscious religious beliefs. It takes about 10 minutes and you can
win an Ipod nano for participating. If you want to help with the study
by participating, the study is described and linked from
http://www.public.asu.edu/~acohen4/cohenstudy.htm
I would like to include people from a variety of religious and
spiritual backgrounds. I thought this group given the topic might be
interested in the research and have interesting perspectives.

Because the study will time your responses, it will ask you to download
a small program to run the study. If you want to check on the safety
of this, you can go to millisecond.com, which is the company that wrote
the software. You can also google me to make sure I am actually a
psychology researcher (add "psychology" or "religon" to googling my
name, or else you get the musician Adam Cohen). My ASU email address
is adamco...@xxxxxxx if you want to get in touch with me.

Thank you. I appreciate your attention.
Adam Cohen, Department of psychology, Arizona State University

So the question is, what is actually being tested here? Is it
the willingness of people to take online surveys? The willingness
to download 3rd party plug-ins? What?
