What Is The Time Commitment If I Join This Research Study?

Your participation will last one hour during one visit.  You will come to the SDSU HealthLINK Center, located at 6475 Alvarado Road, to perform approximately 12 walking and falling experiments.

The research scientist could stop your participation in the research study at any time even if you want to still be in the study. This would happen if:

  • They think it is in your best interest to stop being in the study.
  • You are not willing or able to do all the things needed in the study.
  • The whole study stops.

If you stop being in the study, your information collected before you stopped being in the study will be included in the study.  You have the right to request that your data be removed from the data set. If you want to have your data removed from the data set, you should send a letter in the U.S. mail to Dr. Christopher Paolini requesting that your data be removed.  Please send your letter to Dr. Paolini at the following address:
