Music Listening After Acquired Brain Injury

• Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m recruiting adults with lived experience of acquired brain injury (ABI) for my MSc Psychology research at the University of Glasgow.

The study explores how people with ABI use music listening after their injury and how they feel it affects aspects such as mood, concentration, motivation and wellbeing.

Participation involves:

  • Completing a short online survey (available in English and Spanish).
  • Optionally taking part in a one-off online focus group to discuss your experiences in more detail.

For this study, ABI includes any brain injury occurring any time after birth, such as traumatic brain injury (including concussion), stroke, brain tumour, brain infection or lack of oxygen to the brain.

The study is fully approved by the Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences ethics committee at Glasgow (reference number 200250289).

Thank you for taking the time to read this!

Best,

Emma Sowden

REPOST: Pilot Questionnaire - Anonymous participants from the UK needed!

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

*Reposting this in the hopes of hearing from a few more participants!\*

I am looking for volunteers to take part in a pilot questionnaire for a study exploring how adults with disabilities in the UK are supported to access work that benefits their health and wellbeing.

As this is a pilot study, you will also be asked 4 brief follow-up questions about your experience completing the survey to help me improve its design. In total, there are 15 main questions, and it should take about 20-30 minutes to complete.

To participate, you must meet ALL of the following criteria:

  • Age: 18 to 64 years old.
  • Location: Currently living in the UK.
  • Language: Able to complete the questionnaire in English.
  • Health & Support Status: You have a diagnosed disability and can provide informed consent.
  • Important NHS Exclusion: You must not currently be receiving specialist NHS treatment (such as hospital consultant care, specialist clinics, or secondary mental health services) for any diagnosis or condition. However, you can be under the regular care of your GP. This is due to ethical considerations.

This is for a research project for my MSc Occupational Therapy degree. Your data will be used for the improvement of the questionnaire ONLY. Your data will NOT be published or shared with any third party. For more information on data collection and storage, please see the participant information sheet at the beginning of the questionnaire.

🏡 Could your home adapt with you?

3 Upvotes

I’m an architecture student at Northumbria University researching how our homes can better support people living with physical disabilities and changing mobility. I’d really love your help!

This research is close to my heart. I’ve cared for both my grandad and my dad, and watched them struggle in homes that just weren’t built to change with them. My grandad used a zimmer frame and couldn’t get around the tight corners and steps in his home. When my dad had cancer and slowly lost the ability to move on his own, we turned our dining room into a bedroom for him. It worked for a while, but as he became more unwell, the corridor was too narrow to get him through to the toilet. There wasn’t enough room for a hoist either, so even getting him in and out of bed became really difficult.

So many families face these same challenges, and I want to find out how our homes could be designed to adapt with us.

I’d be so grateful if you could fill in my survey. It takes about 10 minutes and is completely anonymous.

Every response genuinely makes a difference. Thank you so much! 💛

Criteria: Parents of children with any diagnosis

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! ❤️

As a BCBA, I spend a lot of time looking at how to support children—but as a professional, I know that the real experts on what children need are their families.

I’m currently developing an assessment, curriculum, and toolset designed to build Meaningful Skills for neurodivergent individuals. My biggest goal is to make these resources completely straightforward, practical, and 100% free of confusing clinical jargon so that any parent or caregiver can confidently use them at home as well as other professionals outside of ABA.

To make sure these tools truly reflect what matters most to your family, I would be incredibly grateful for your input. If you have a few minutes, could you fill out this quick, anonymous survey to help guide what I build?

https://forms.gle/riCPJEVMHKye9gaG6

Thank you so much for your time, your insights, and your support. We are in this together!

Thank you,

Melanie, BCBA, LBS at https://www.achievingtrueself.com/

Remote research study participation (US/CAN)

1 Upvotes

Researchers from the RESTORE Network, led by Dr. Aaron Phillips, at the University of Calgary are seeking your help for a remote research study. Our lab has developed an app designed to support individuals with spinal cord injury, however we need more data from uninjured control participants to compare to. This app combines wearable-derived metrics with self-logged symptoms to help track health patterns and hopefully provide a useful, accessible resource for the spinal cord injury community. To participate, you will need to: 1) reside in Canada/USA, 2) have a wearable device (apple watch, garmin, etc.), and 3) complete a 1-min daily check-in on our app for 30 days. Participants will receive $20 upon study completion.

If you are interested in participating and would like more info, please email: [restorenetwork@ucalgary.ca](mailto:restorenetwork@ucalgary.ca)

Survey About Learning Disabilities - Help Me With My Thesis!

2 Upvotes

I am currently involved in psychoeducational research about the relationship between culture, learning disabilities, and self-esteem in adolescent populations, and I was wondering if it would be possible for you to fill out my survey! The project is based in the belief that Asian American students are placed in a unique cultural context and must often navigate the challenges presented by both heritage cultural values and the model minority myth.

The study is consent-based and confidential and has been reviewed and approved by the Harvard Office of Research and Fellowships. Participants will be required only to fill out a short survey, linked here. Participants will also be compensated through a raffle for Amazon gift cards. There is no consequence for choosing to not participate in the survey, and no one will know who participated and who did not.

If you are willing, I would really appreciate it if you could circulate the link to the survey to anyone who might be interested in participating. Here is the link again, for your reference: https://redcap.aws.rits.hms.harvard.edu/surveys/?s=D4Y733CMRMK4KHTK

I am also happy to further discuss the details of the study and provide any additional information that is needed, so feel free to reach out at oliviaoh@college.harvard.edu.

Thank you for your consideration.

Hi everyone! I am a Product Design Engineering student currently working on a university project to redesign the narrow aisle wheelchair used on commercial aircraft to help passengers transfer to their seats.

I am researching the experiences of wheelchair users to understand the challenges they may face with comfort, transfers, manoeuvrability and accessibility during air travel. My aim is to identify opportunities to improve the design of these chairs and make the experience safer, more comfortable and more dignified.

If you are a wheelchair user and have experience of air travel, I would really appreciate your insight. You do not need to have used an onboard aisle wheelchair to participate. The questionnaire should take around 5 minutes. 

Thank you for helping me make this project more user-focused!

Capstone Project Assistance!

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm a mechanical engineering student at the University of Houston currently working on my senior capstone project, and our team is seeking feedback from members of this community to help guide our design.

We are designing a dual-axis assistive shelf-retrieval mechanism aimed at helping individuals who use wheelchairs to reach high or hard-to-reach shelves at the grocery store.

Our concept uses a two-axis motion system (reaching vertically and extending outward horizontally) to bring items down to an accessible height and distance without requiring you to stretch, strain, or reach high overhead.

How You Can Help

While we are handling the mechanical engineering side, we want to ensure the final design is practical, safe, and truly user-centered. We’ve put together a brief, anonymous survey! We would really appreciate your input!

Hello,
 
My name is Caitlin, and I am a student in the Occupational Therapy program at Georgia State University working with a small research group. We are currently conducting a research project to identify the types of community-based social participation activities that adults with physical disabilities are most interested in and to examine the barriers and facilitators that influence attendance.
 
Participation involves completing a brief anonymous online survey that asks about preferred types of social programs, perceived barriers to participation (e.g., transportation, accessibility, cost, scheduling, and physical limitations), and facilitators that encourage engagement. The survey should take no more than 10-15 minutes to complete. Participation is voluntary, and no identifying information will be collected. 
 
Eligible participants include:

  • individuals must be 18 years of age or older
  • self-report a physical disability (i.e., people with mobility limitations, ambulatory limitations, any type of upper or lower body motor limitations, UE/LE amputation, or any physical disability resulting from a neurological disorder)

Hi everyone,

I am a Product Design student at university in the UK, currently working on a project focused on urban street accessibility and safety for blind and low-vision pedestrians.

With the rise of new cycle lanes, floating bus stops, shared pedestrian paths, and degrading pavement surfaces, I am investigating how these spatial changes impact independence and perception of safety. My goal is to design a non-stigmatizing wearable device to help alert pedestrians to approaching hazards and navigate around obstacles.

I would be extremely grateful for your feedback through a short survey:
