Subject: Gemstone MAGIC study -- Earn up to $20 for less than an hour

We are interested in your perceptions and attitudes regarding sharing
genetic information
within the health-care industry. You can provide valuable insight by
participating in a
hypothetical experiment regarding the sharing of healthcare information.
The research
is being conducted by the University of Maryland=92s Gemstone Program, as
well as the
Robert H. Smith School of Business.

We are asking college-aged undergraduate students (ages 18-24) participate.
Please
be assured that your answers are confidential. Individuals who participate
will not be
identified. Additionally, no actual healthcare information will be used;
all data will be
based upon hypothetical scenarios.

Students who participate will be compensated by $10 for participation as
well as up to an
additional $10 based upon decisions made in the experiment. Experiments
will require
one hour to complete. Participants will be selected on a first come first
serve basis.

All sessions will take place in 3518 Van Munching Hall
