Paid Research Study for Survivors of Natural Disasters

The Intervention Sciences Laboratory in the Psychology Department at the University of Arkansas is currently conducting a research study designed to increase researchers' understanding of emotional reactions following stressful life events.

The laboratory is currently recruiting both males and females who have experienced a stressful natural disaster, such as tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, and hurricanes.  The study involves one visit to the laboratory that takes between 3 1/2 and 4 hours to complete. During this laboratory visit, participants will complete a number of different tasks, including completing an interview related to the natural disaster event, writing about the stressful natural disaster, and completing a number of questionnaires. Participants will also be asked to watch two short videos.

Participants will be compensated $30 for their participation. Both weekday and weekend appointments are available. If you are interested in participating, or learning more about this study, please contact Sarah Bujarski in the Intervention Sciences Laboratory at 479-575-5811 or sbujarsk@uark.edu
