FAQ

Questions about this study

What is this study trying to understand?

This study is exploring psychotherapy or therapy for people with mental health. Participants may complete study visits, assessments, or follow-up activities defined by the research team. Direct benefit is not guaranteed. The detailed objective is not always clearly listed in the public registry; the study team can confirm.

What is a behavioral study?

This appears to be a behavioral / psychological / psychosocial study. Phase 2 studies usually explore whether the intervention may work, while continuing to monitor safety.

Are there criteria about substance use or wanting to reduce it?

The public registry appears to mention tobacco, nicotine, alcohol, cannabis, or another addiction-related topic. Ask the study team whether you need to want to stop, reduce, already be abstinent, or simply meet use-related criteria. Eligibility must be confirmed by the study team.

What would I likely need to do?

You may take part in sessions or exercises related to habits, thoughts, emotions, or behaviors. The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask whether some steps can be done remotely.

Will I need to change, stop, or stabilize my current treatment?

The public registry appears to mention rules about current treatment, stability, stopping treatment, or dose changes. Do not change your treatment for a study without medical guidance. Ask the study team and your clinician what is required, what is not allowed, and how safety is monitored.

Will I need to travel or attend in-person visits?

The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask which sites are open, how many visits are expected, whether any steps can be done remotely, and whether travel costs or compensation are listed.

Who is behind this study?

This study is sponsored by The University of Newcastle, NSW, which appears to be a university. The listed contact or investigator is Ashleigh Guillaumier.
