Is inflexibility in thinking a determinant for adhering to mental health therapies?
How to take partAbout the study
There is little research that explores this topic despite those receiving mental health therapies often face difficulties during treatment and poor treatment outcomes. This research aims to understand how flexibility in thinking influences participation in mental health treatments and its effects on well-being. We will ask you to complete some questions exploring personality traits, well-being, and treatment adherence, as well as a puzzle measuring flexibility in thinking.
What will it involve?
Should you choose to participate, we recommend you find a quiet room where you will not be disturbed for the duration of the study (about 20 minutes). You will be asked questions about your personal circumstances and mental health. You then will be asked to complete some questionnaires measuring psychological well-being, personality traits, adherence to mental health treatments, and a puzzle measuring flexibility in thinking.
