Please Participate in my PhD Study!

While there are positive aspects to the Internet, some people find they use it too much, which can have negative effects on their lives. The aim of this study is to explore positives but also potential downsides to using the Internet. Problematic Use of the Internet (when using it too much, or PUI) is a global public health concern and has drawn the attention of many international bodies including the World Health Organization (WHO). Important knowledge gaps remain and we are undertaking this research to find out more. We will also be asking you questions about your mental health to learn more about your stress levels, mood, and current and past experiences that may be linked to your use of the Internet. By doing so we aim to facilitate the understanding of PUI by improving its measurement, knowledge of its demographic and clinical correlates and uncovering its causes.

You are invited to take part in this cutting-edge project which aims to investigate Internet use and how it relates to mental health and well-being in people aged 18-65 years.

As the day winds down, take a minute to think about how often you “stopped to breathe” today.
• Did you draw attention to your breath?
• Did you deeply inhale the issues and gently exhale the frustrations?
• Did you walk away feeling better about the day?

All of these fancy measures of personality from self reports to gamification to the now popular "Big Data"... but are we collecting correct and appropriate information for the intended purpose?

Join me and the rest of the members in our discussions hosted by PsyPub on 26 March 15:00-17:00 GMT Time.

There are many methods that are used to measure personality but are they really measuring the same construct I mean thing :)
