Hello,


I am currently carrying out a piece of research on eating behaviour in adult females for my MSc Health Psychology, and would like to invite you to take part.


Much research into eating behaviour has looked at the role of parents, but this often focuses on responses from parents themselves or of children/adolescents. I am interested in looking at how a person's perceptions of their parents/caregivers parenting style and feeding behaviour, may have influenced their eating behaviour in adulthood.


I would really appreciate it if would take part in the research. If you would like to take part, all you need to do is click on the link below and complete a short online survey. It will take you no more than 25 minutes. You also need to be female,over the age of 18, and living in the UK. The survey is completely anonymous and you will be given further information once you begin the survey.

Thanks for your help!

This sounds interesting to me. I'm curious though why you are only interested in responses from females?

HI Alan, There are a couple of reasons for the focus on females. Firstly, much of the current research available tends to focus largely on females as the percentage of females with eating disorders/unusual eating habits is greater in this population. Also, as it is a project for a Masters, we are encouraged to try not to get to ambitious with our research (in terms of the number of variables we are looking at). We only have a year, and I think this might be largely for the sake of our sanity. I am at some hoping to continue this research as part of a PhD though and incorporating males into the research would certainly be part of this. I hope that helps, and sorry you will not at present be able to take part in the research. If you would like any more information though, please feel free to contact me on my university email which is [email protected]??Thanks

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
