Dear Parent or Caregiver,
We would like to invite you and your child to participate and contribute to our research on movement-based practices in early instrumental learning. We highly value your knowledge and input as the primary caregiver(s) to your child(ren). Your participation and completion of this survey will help to deepen our research and further our understanding about the following topics regarding your family and child(ren):
(1) Demographic information for participating caregivers
(2) Demographic information for the respondents’ children
(3) Musical Environment and Activities
(4) Music and Movement Background
(5) Follow-up
Please, note that:
You will need approximately 5-10 min. to complete this survey.
Before answering:
- Please carefully read the questions and the explanation (when provided)
- Be elaborate when answering the questions. In that way, we learn the most from your insights. No detail is too big or too small.
- There are no good, bad, or desirable answers.
- We are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of all participants in this study.
Although the researcher, who is also the teacher, can identify participants, all identifying information will be removed and stored separately. This ensures that participants remain anonymous. Pseudonyms (e.g., P1) will replace real names for data analysis, presentation, and publication purposes. All data will be securely stored and accessible only to the authorized researcher involved in the study.
We would like to thank you very much for completing this survey and having your children patriciate in our research project. In doing so, you are playing a large role in helping us conduct our research and learn more about the use of movement in early childhood music education.
