This study assesses the accessibility of high-speed Internet and digital skills of individuals who live in San Rafael. A qualitative and quantitative survey with both short-answer questions and multiple-choice questions will be shared with San Rafael residents. Additionally, the Principal Investigator will conduct one-to-one interviews with San Rafael residents whom do not have access to high-speed Internet. We do not anticipate you experiencing any discomfort or other negative feelings when responding to items in this study.

Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. Should you decide to discontinue participation, you may do so without penalty. You may also skip any item you do not wish to complete. Your participation in this study will help inform scholars, educational experts, and other students about the factors that influence access to high-speed Internet and computer literacy. We are not asking you to place your name anywhere on the survey materials, nor will we collect any personally identifiable information, so your participation is anonymous. None of your answers can be directly traced back to you.
