I’m doing a research project on attraction and various romantic strategies. I’ve made several short online courses organizing several different approaches to seduction, and am looking for men 18 and older who are interested in taking them as well as a short pre and post survey designed to gauge the effectiveness of the techniques taught. If you are want to sign up, or know anyone who might be interested you can use this google form to register. If you have any questions comment or PM me and I’ll get back to you.
ETA:Since someone mentioned publication I thought I should clarify. This is specifically a student research project so, unlike a class project, I am aiming for a peer-reviewed publication, however the odds are much slimmer than if someone more experienced/academically higher status were running it. Also, even if it doesn’t get formally published I will follow the “Gwern model”. That is to say I’ll publish my results online along with as much as my materials as I can (the courses are my own work + publicly available texts, but I only have a limited license for the measures I’m using).

Excellent! An area in which there has been far less formal research than the usefulness of the knowledge calls for. I’ll be interested in seeing your results once you publish them.
Thanks for catching that. I’ve edited the instructions to be clearer. For reference here is the added text. The basic lesson format is a short reading (a few pages), an assignment applying the reading to your life, and a short follow-up/written reflection. There is some variability, but the assignments tend to be short (in the vicinity of 5 minutes) and/or designed to be worked into normal social interaction. That said, the normal social interaction part does assume that you are frequently around women that you some interest in flirting with, asking out ect. If this is not the case finding suitable women to interact with could take significantly more time

Are you also going to try to gauge how friendly to women each technique is?
That is not something the study is designed to study, however, it was a major consideration in designing the curriculums.
Alright.
Your sign up form doesn’t say anything about the amount of time/effort that you expect students to invest into the course.
