I'm currently conducting a pilot study at Dominican University for pre-dissertation research. My study will use an interdisciplinary lens to explore how fairy tales influence perceptions of beauty, identity, and gender roles among contemporary *girls and women in the United States.

Eligibility criteria:

• Must self-identify as a female.
• Must currently reside in the United States. 
• Age Range: **8+

I kindly ask for your participation in this brief survey and would be grateful if you could also share it within your networks.  Five survey participants will receive a $10 Amazon Gift card, and those interviewed will receive a $50 Amazon Gift Card.

• If you are 15-17, click here: Fairy Tale Survey | Dominican University 2024
• If you are 8-14: Fairy Tale Survey | Dominican University 2024 

*This study adopts an expansive and inclusive definition of girls and women, recognizing a spectrum of gender identities. The research aims to honor and understand the complex realities of all who contribute to the broader narrative of female experiences.

**Parental consent is required for participants under 18.
