Dear Senior Forum,
I’m a research postgraduate in the Department of Psychology at the University of Sheffield. I’m working with Professor Paul Overton. Our group has recently been working on quality of life and mental health in people with chronic illness and we’d like to extend this work to general population as our controls. Our work to date suggests that how people feel about themselves (their emotions towards their ‘self’ image and behaviour) affects their quality of life, and can directly lead to secondary mental health problems, such as depression. Using these findings, we have begun to explore methods of tackling negative feeling states people with chronic illness have towards themselves, with an aim to help them reduce depressive symptoms and improve quality of life. The study we envisage would involve the online administration of 4-5 short questionnaires, with possible follow-ups 6 months later. Prior approval has been obtained through our institutional ethics committee.
Advert:
Senior participants wanted for a study on emotion and wellbeing.
I am a PhD student in the Department of Psychology and as part of my research I am looking for volunteers age 40 years old and above to take part in an online study exploring the relationship between emotional responses and psychological wellbeing. Our group has recently been working on quality of life and mental health in people with chronic illness and we’d like to extend this work to general population as our controls.
The study involves filling out a series of questionnaires and will take approximately 10 minutes. All responses are anonymous and will be treated confidentially.
