Paid Research Study on Nonsuicidal Self-Injury (Self-Harm)
The Tracking Risk Over Time Lab (TRTL) at Texas Tech University is conducting an IRB-approved study on nonsuicidal self-injury urges and behaviors, such as self-cutting, burning, or hitting. The study involves completing questionnaires and an interview remotely using videoconferencing, as well as responding to short surveys on your cell phone over 2 weeks. Participants can earn up to $75.
If you are between 18 to 34, currently residing in the US, and have struggled with nonsuicidal self-harm in the past month, you may be eligible to participate in our study. To learn more and to see if you qualify, click here:
