Wanted: Participants Needed for VIU Research Study

Who: Canadian adults aged 19-68.

When: 4 time points – at each time point entered to win $100!

We are seeking Canadian adults (19 years of age and over) to participate in an online survey describing the impact of COVID-19 on sleep, stress, mental and physical health, and house and home behaviours. Because we’re interested in how Canadians are responding to the changing environment imposed by COVID-19 (ie, the lessening and strengthening of physical distancing restrictions, and the closures and re-openings of businesses/schools/etc), you will be asked to do the same online survey 4 times, once every three months. We hope that the results of this study will help to increase our knowledge of the impact of COVID-19; results will be shared with the media, and at academic conferences and peer-reviewed journals, and of course with participants! Participation in the study is completely voluntary, and you can withdraw at any time. At each 3 month time interval participants will be entered in a draw to win $100 gift cards (national grocery store). If you are interested in participating, or would like more information, please contact Marla Morden (contact information can be found in attachment). If you have any questions, now or in the future, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for taking the time to read and respond to this invitation. Your assistance with our study is greatly appreciated
