Research Participants Needed
We are recruiting women for a study that examines binge eating, relationships, and wellbeing.
We are looking for women who:
- Binge eat at least twice per month (eat more in one sitting than people typically eat AND feel a loss of control)
- Have a romantic partner
- Are age 18+
- Own a smartphone
- Read and write in English
- Are able to come to York University for one in-person appointment (parking/TTC cost will be reimbursed)
What does the study involve?
- Complete a brief screening phone call to determine eligibility.
- Attend a 90-minute meeting with the researcher in-person at York University to complete an interview and questionnaires.
- Complete 5 brief surveys per day on your phone for 14 days.
- Attend a virtual 5-10-minute debriefing session.
- You will also be given a flyer to give to your romantic partner so they can complete questionnaires if they choose.
Compensation will be provided.
If you would like more information or to set up a screening phone call, please email relationshipsandwellbeing@gmail.com.
This study has been approved by the York University Research Ethics Board (e2024-007).
