What are the possible benefits of taking part?
Upon confirmation of your eligibility you will gain an entry to win one of thirty £10 prize draws!
Upon completion of stage 1, you will be given an entry into another prize draw to win one of fifty £10 prize draws.
If you continue to take part in the diary study you will be entered into prize draws for each week that you participate. In total there are £700 worth of prizes to be won. These consist of 10 prize draws of £25, 1 prize draw of £150 (for those who provide up to 6 weeks’ worth of diary entries) and 1 prize draw of £300 (for those who provide 12 weeks’ worth of diary entries).
You might find the topic of this study interesting and enjoy taking part. Ultimately, your contribution to the research will also enable us to have a greater understanding of people’s different sexual experiences after drinking alcohol and taking drugs, which is useful in its own right but also can help to inform future public health strategies.
What are the possible risks involved in taking part?
There are no direct risks of being involved in this study; however as mentioned above, you may find that some of the questions are of a personal or sensitive nature (e.g. those which ask about your positive and negative sexual experiences and your drug and alcohol consumption) or that you are presented with statements expressing views that are possibly strongly different or similar to your own (and you can indicate how much you agree or disagree with these statements). Details on what’s involved in the study have been given in the section above so that you can decide if you would like to participate or not. Also, you can choose to leave any question unanswered if you prefer without giving a reason. If taking part in the study, you are also free to stop the study at any time.
Although the study is not intended to cause any distress, if you do experience discomfort or distress you can access free and confidential advice and/ or support by visiting the appropriate support service links on the support services page OR there are support services offered at every stage of the the survey.
In no way will you be asked to increase or decrease your drug taking, alcohol drinking or sexual behaviour during this study.
