<p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;">I am looking for volunteers for a study of attitudes towards marriage and parenthood among engaged couples.  The study consists of a 25-30 minute online survey. To qualify for the study, you must be 20-35 years old, live in the U.S., and plan to marry or have a commitment ceremony within the next 365 days. You and your romantic partner must not have children, and this must be the first marriage for both of you.<br />
