Invitations to Research

u3a groups such as Kinross-shire occasionally receive invitations to participate in research projects. These are usually from PhD students looking at the effects of, or attitudes to, ageing. The investigator is usually keen to find as many participants as they can that fit their research criteria, and have circulated their request widely. Participation in research is very much an individual choice; there should be no sense of obligation and you may discontinue at any point without needing to give a reason. Some people are happy to take part in such projects, and others are not.

Any research requests that are posted here do not imply any recommendation one way or another from Kinross-shire u3a, although we would not knowingly post any requests that do not have an appropriate ethics committee approval.

As of September 2023, the last such invitation was May 2021, but if we receive new invitations they will be added to the link in the adjacent coulmn.
