Signup for Upcoming Studies
Later in 2011, some new online studies concerning depression will open on this website. The studies will investigate:
- the public's knowledge about the symptoms, causes and treatment of depression
- the public's views about what it is like to experience depression
- attitudes towards videos and websites intended to educate the public about depression
The studies will take approximately 10 to 15 minutes to complete.
Anyone will be able to participate in the studies, whether they have personally experienced depression or not. University students and non-University students will be able to participate in the studies, as well as Australian residents and people who live in other countries.
Participants will have a chance to enter a prize draw to win a $100 gift voucher to an online store of their choice.
If you would like to be emailed an invitation to participate in the studies when they open, please enter your details in the box below. Your email address will be stored securely and not used for any purpose other than to invite you to participate in the studies.
