University of Glasgow call for participants to join a new study on lifestyles and wellbeing
- Area of Work: The ALLIANCE
- Type: News Item
- Published: 23rd August 2022
Want to improve understanding of how we live and how that affects our health?
What is the research about?
Health behaviours like smoking or what we eat affect our health but so do life experiences, like financial problems. New research, at the University of Glasgow, aims to understand your views on how life experiences and health behaviours work together to affect our health and what can be done to help. There are no wrong answers, and everyone’s views are welcome.
What does the research involve?
For 1-2 hours of your time, you would take part in a face-to-face discussion with 6-7 people and a friendly researcher. Your personal details would remain confidential. We would reimburse your travel costs and provide lunch. To thank you, we would offer you a £20 voucher.
If you would like more information on how to get involved, please download the flyer below. You can also contact Dr Hamish Foster using the details below or ask a member of staff from ALLIANCE.
Telephone: 0141 330 3907
