Thank you amoLucia, I am very much aware of that, thats the case with everyone that we meet in our everyday life. We can only hope people are who they say they are, and they are sincere. I also hope that people who are going to help me with my project are going to be sincere, but I dont cannot proof if they are sincere or not. The same with, if I was to give my survey to nurses working at a certain hospital, I wont be able to prove if their answers are sincere or not, so your concern is an all around problem to be realistic. If you're a nurse yourself, I would really appreciate your help by participating in my survey. Thank you

Hi amoLucia, thank you for your concern, but this website was actually suggested to me by my peers. Surveys are never going to be 100% accurate, there is always going to be a margin of error. Its better to post my survey here, where there is credibility, than posting my survey on craiglist.

Thank you very much for your response. I wasnt told tha I will need IRB approval, its anonymous, the only requirement is, it has to be RN who answers the questions, not those in nursing school. I really appreciate your help and here is the link to surveymonkey Nursing Survey

Hi everyone, my name is everyone, I am doing my dissertation for my Masters. The questionnaire focuses on the experience of nurses at work place, therefore, I will prefer RN and not nursing students to do the survey. The survey will help me complete my paper, and it all depends on your help in doing my survey. It will be of great help. There are only few questions, and they are all multiple choice. I would prefer to have the survey completed by Thursday the latest, but depending on how many response I receive, I may add few more days.
