$50 gift card to learn about breast cancer risk. We need volunteers to learn about breast cancer risk. Researchers at Miami University and Cornell University will give women a $50 gift card to be part of an on-line study from home. We are developing an advanced web-based tutor to help ordinary women understand genetic breast cancer risk. In this 3-hour study you will be randomly assigned to one of three interactive tutorials. Then you will fill out some surveys. Our goal is to help women like you make better health decisions. You must be a woman over 18 and everything is confidential.

Requirements. To participate in this study each of the following must apply to you. You must:

Be a woman.
Be 18 or older.
Not have breast cancer yourself.
Have a computer with an internet connection.
Have 3 hours for the study (there is not a good way to stop and come back later).

Breast Cancer Risk Study I am asking you to participate in a research study. This form is designed to give you information about this study. I will describe this study to you and answer any of your questions.

We have now collected over 1,000,000 words of meaningful text for laypeople about breast cancer and genetic risk. When implemented in the next generation of out Intelligent Tutoring System this corpus of text should help improve the ability of our system to communicate with people in English.

Good news, Dr. Suzanne Braddock and Addicus Books have granted us permission to use the book “Straight Talk About Breast Cancer: From Diagnosis to Recovery” to help us build the next generation of our intelligent tutoring system to help women make decisions about genetic testing for breast cancer risk.

More good news; Dr. Susan Love and The Perseus Books Group have granted us permission to use "Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book" to help us build the next generation of our intelligent tutoring system. This will help our system become better at helping women make decisions about genetic testing for breast cancer risk.
