Hi everyone,

I'm a graduate student at The University of Wisconsin-Madison and I am studying how aging affects performance in sports. Specifically, I am graphing the average scores and ages of all the bowlers in the 2002 PBA World Championship and 2002 PBA Suncoast Senior World Championship. I have found some of the ages of the bowlers on pba.com or by googling their names on the internet, but I am still missing some ages. If you know the date of birth or year of birth of any of the players shown below, will you please let me know? Thanks so much, Allison

I would suggest that you try and contact the individuals directly. I do know quite a few of the bowlers listed here, and I would not even think of giving personal information like that out. If the informtaion is not published, then in my opinion, the correct (and ethical) way to get that kind of information is from the individual, not from a third party.

http://cme.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials/learning/humanparticipant-protections.asp

Go to that website and see what the guidelines are for using human subjects for academic reseach. There is an online tutorial there concerning the use of hmna subjects.

Bimmerman & ExBronxiteBowler,

Thank you both for your help and advice. It was my hope that some of the individuals in the list I posted would be on this discussion board and would volunteer their ages. I will try contacting them individually.

I agree that human subjects protection in research is important. With the study I am conducting, the ages of individuals will not be connected to their names. Only their bowling score will be matched to their age.

According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services Code of Federal Regulations on the Protection of Human Subjects, "research activities in which the only involvement of human subjects will be in one or more of the following categories are exempt from this policy:
(4) Research involving the collection or study of existing data, documents, records, pathological specimens, or diagnostic specimens, if these sources are publicly available or if the information is recorded by the investigator in such a manner that subjects cannot be identified, directly or through identifiers linked to the subjects."

Thanks again for both of your replies.

Good luck with your research... I happen to know several of the players myself, but I am not willing to give out personal information about them...
