How to take part

About the study

This study focuses on how personal attributes and social factors (therapy, peer-support, friends etc.) may impact change processes AFTER psychosis.

It's hoped the study's outcomes will inform and improve psychological practitioners' practices when working with those recovering from psychosis experiences.

What will it involve?

The study has 2 parts. You can volunteer for just part 1, or both parts. Both parts would be anonymous and mask your identity.

1. An online survey about your psychosis event, changes you may have experienced afterwards and some personal/social factors impacting changes experienced during/after recovery.

2. I'd like to interview 10 survey participants about their post-psychosis changes in more depth (what changed, how changes happened, who may have been involved etc.).
