You are invited to participate in a research project investigating whether parental acceptance impacts Implicit Self-Esteem in the LGBTQIA+ population and if high alcohol consumption is a coping strategy for low Implicit Self-Esteem.
Research found a strong correlation between self-esteem development and parenting acceptance of their children’s sexual orientation (Katz-Wise, 2016), with less accepting parents contributing negatively to their child’s development of self-esteem. Furthermore, compared to heterosexual individuals, sexual minorities showed to be more affected by unhealthy self-esteem, due to discrimination (Dermody et al., 2014). Additionally, low levels of self-esteem have been linked to increased alcohol consumption (Lauren et al., 2017; Zhai et al., 2015).
If you are 18+, part of the LGBTQIA+ community and an alcohol consumer, I would very much appreciate it if you would spare 20 minutes to take part in my project: https://research.sc/participant/login/dynamic/26102FCC-5DD8-49A6-87DC-8334530FCB04
You will fill out online questionnaires which will ask you about your perceived parental acceptance, drinking habits, and drinking motives. A task will assess your Implicit Self-Esteem through the Implicit Association Test. The experiment can only be run on mobile phones or tablets.

I am currently recruiting participants for my dissertation project about how language influences how we process information. There are two different experiments – completely independent of each other, although there are some similarities between them. If you’re interested, here are the links:
– Experiment 1: https://research.sc/participant/login/dynamic/D5D024F6-FEDA-4C42-A3FB-160A13416A22 (This is more about memory recall – probably a bit more interesting, but also slightly more difficult than experiment 2) – Experiment 2: https://research.sc/participant/login/dynamic/938A1A5D-8D99-42E0-B098-5755A4C5C0A5 (This is more about information processing – fairly straightforward and probably a bit quicker than experiment 1).

Investigating the individual and combined effects of social media content consumption and Covid-19 risk factors on the mental health of students and recent graduates.
As much of the early research into Covid-19’s impact on mental health concerns healthcare professionals, current students (undergraduate / postgraduates) and recent graduates (of the years 2019/2020) can shed light on the impact of specific Covid-19 risk factors on the mental health of young adults navigating higher education and entering the workforce. Given that social media has been instrumental in keeping us connected, supported, and informed throughout the pandemic, this study will ask about your social media content consumption habits and preferences, as well as your recent mental health and pandemic-specific concerns. Using this information, this study seeks to investigate whether social media content consumption plays a role in the relationship between Covid-19 risk factors and mental health.
The study consists of a series of short questionnaires in an online survey format, which should take no more than 20-25 minutes. There is a prize draw for 10, £15 vouchers if you wish to enter.
The Survey Link (which includes a more detailed Participant Information Sheet) is found below:

The distribution of digital shared decision-making aids
When decisions are being made about a patient’s treatment there are 2 experts involved:
- The health professional who is an expert in the condition.
- The patient who is an expert in themselves e.g. how they are experiencing the condition, how they feel about possible side effects etc.
Shared decision making takes place when both experts share information and preferences with each other, have a discussion and come to a mutual decision about what to do next. To help with shared decision-making tools known as shared decision-making aids can be used before, during, and even after the appointment by health professionals and patients. It is recommended that when a digital aid is developed how the aid will be provided to patients should also be established. Unfortunately, this often does not happen and when it does there is little evidence of the potential users being asked how they would like to be given the aid.
This study is open to everyone currently living in Scotland and is comprised of an online survey which asks how you would like to be provided with a digital shared decision-making aid before, during (in person and remote) and after an appointment. The survey can be completed on all devices including smartphone and should take no more than 20 minutes to complete.

Predicting Burnout
We invite you to take part in a study investigating how perfectionism is influenced by resilience in predicting burnout and whether these effects vary by culture.
Evidence shows perfectionism increases, and resilience reduces, the likelihood of burnout. We have found no studies which investigate how these factors interact, or any cross cultural differences in their effects. Our study is therefore unique in investigating whether resilience counteracts any harmful aspects of perfectionism which predict higher burnout. As burnout also involves a reduction in group belonging we are also investigating whether cultures that prioritise group harmony present burnout differently.
We are interested in responses from anyone studying or working full time and particularly across east and western cultures. Surveys are available in English and simplified Chinese from the link below. The study consists of a demographic questions but responses are entirely anonymous and should take 20 minutes maximum.
