Details of Study: You should only participate if you want to. Before you decide whether you want to take part, it is important for you to read the following information carefully and discuss it with others if you wish. Ask us if there is anything that is not clear or if you would like more information. This study is being conducted by researchers from the Research Department of Clinical, Educational and Health Psychology at UCL and a London-based company called SOMA analytics.
Who are we recruiting?
We are recruiting healthy English-speaking adults, aged 18-65 with no history of mental disorder.
What will happen if you agree to take part
If you agree to participate in this study you will be asked to download a smartphone app than was developed to assess a person’s wellbeing via patterns of emotions extracted from person’s speech. Initially, we will ask you to fill out several questionnaires about you as a person (which takes a maximum of an hour but usually less). You will take part over a testing period of 14 days. Each day, at three times you will receive a reminder to check the app which will present a sentence to you that we would like you to read out aloud to the telephone. Afterwards you will be asked to complete another brief questionnaire each time - those testings will not take longer than 3 minutes each time.
What are the potential risks?
There are no major risks in participating. Some people may find some of the questions asked in the questionnaires upsetting or stress-inducing. If this was the case, we recommend to review this with your GP or to seek help (e.g. via Mind, a mental health charity, http://www.mind.org.uk).
Possible benefits
There are no direct benefits to you as the participant. However we will inform you of the overall outcome and impact of our experiment if you would like to know. 20 participants will be chosen randomly amongst all participants in a prize draw and each win £50.
