Participating in health-space is free, confidential, and anonymous to other users.

As with all studies, there are some things for you to consider: if you decide to participate, you'll be asked to fill out some questionnaires at the beginning and again a few months later. You could also be randomized to a wait-list, in which case you'd be given access to the health-space website in 12 weeks. All participants are given a $10 gift card to Target for the time it takes to complete each of the online questionnaires- it's not much, but it's something to compensate you for your time.
