"Many of the features of essential tremor (ET) remain unknown. Ideally, better treatments could be made available and the issues of slowing or stopping progression could be addressed if more was understood about ET. This survey is to help learn more about essential tremor. Some questions will only require a straightforward answer, but others will allow you to express your own ideas. A summary of the results will be published. No information wil be used; shared or published that identifies any individual."
