Hi Everyone,
 
I'm currently running a project as a part of my dissertation in Psychology at the University of Queensland, Australia. Your intellectual contribution in this project is very welcomed. Completing the questionnaire will take less than 40 minutes.  You may get a better understanding of your own character strengths.  Besides, it is for a good cause :) Your contribution is very important for the development of preventative and intervention programs. You do not have to be a gambler to participate.
 
For more information, please click on this link and follow the instructions:

Thank you very much for your time!  :)
 
Cheers

While this is in no way endorsed by BG, it does appear to be legitimate research.  Only a fairly small percentage of the questions have to do with gambling, and as addictive behaviors may have things in common, it might be an interesting tool for self-reflection, as well as assisting with the research.  This is strictly my personal opinion.
