My kindest regards, I am Evelyn Vázquez, an Assistant Researcher in the Department of Social Medicine, Population and Public Health, University of California, Riverside. I am conducting a cross-sectional survey with underrepresented graduate students across
academic disciplines (including Social Sciences, Humanities, STEM, and Professional fields). I am asking you if you would be willing to participate in this research. Participation in this research study is completely voluntary and you may withdraw your participation
at any time.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span style="font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">If you say yes, you will participate in one cross-sectional survey via Qualtrics. The survey will include sociodemographic information, validated measures from the UC Graduate Student Well- Being
Survey (2017), including the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale Revised (CESD-R), and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item (GAD-7) scale. Pseudonyms will be provided. A subsample of 18 graduate students will participate in a longitudinal
study during one quarter.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span style="font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">If you decide to participate in this research, you will be compensated with a $25.00 gift card for the completion of the cross-sectional survey. In addition, if you get invited and agree to participate
in a longitudinal study using light-weight ecological momentary assessment (EMA), you will be receiving an additional $75.00 gift card. You will receive your compensation the same day after we have collected all the data needed for the EMA.</span><span style="font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
