Research study: Thinking styles and psychological outcomes in those diagnosed with cancer
What is the study? This study aims to investigate the role illness-related rumination (repetitively thinking about an illness and its consequences) has in psychological outcomes in those diagnosed with cancer
Who’s organising it? This study is being led by Sarah Beck, a PhD student from the University of Surrey.
What’s the criteria for taking part? You must be at least 18 years of age and have a current cancer diagnosis. You are not eligible to take part in this study if you are receiving palliative care, have a terminal diagnosis, or are not able to give informed consent.
What do I need to do? If you have any questions or would like to take part in the study, please contact Sarah Beck, PhD student and lead researcher sarah.beck@surrey.ac.uk. This will involve completing a short online questionnaire (20 minutes) at three time points across six months, which ask you about your illness (both positive and negative), your wellbeing and experience.
