Share your perspective: Professionals & Researchers in the area of psychological trauma
A University of Melbourne and Mental Health First Aid Australia research project is looking at how someone (a family member, friend, neighbour, concerned community member or a paid carer without specialist qualifications) can help a person who is experiencing extreme distress following a potentially traumatic event.
We are looking for professionals to participate in our surveys. Everyone’s opinions count equally.
Participants will rate statements about how to help a person experiencing extreme distress following a potentially traumatic event according to whether they should be included in guidelines for the public.
Time commitments: You will be asked to do about 3 online surveys over a period of approximately 4-6 months. No travel or meetings required!
Expertise: To participate you must have at least two years experience in the area of psychological trauma (as a mental health professional or researcher).
To participate you must live or work in one of the following countries:
*Australia *Canada *Denmark
*England *Finland *Ireland
*The Netherlands *New Zealand *Northern Ireland
*Scotland *Sweden *The United States of America
*Wales
When? This will start in the next few months, to be advised.
If you are interested in participating, or for further information, please contact Kathryn Chalmers at Melbourne University: kchalmers1@unimelb.edu.au.
