NRAS has been asked by a post-graduate student, at the University of West of England, Bristol, attending the MSc Health Psychology programme, to signpost people living with RA in the UK to her online survey.
NRAS wish to make it clear that the society has had no input into the design of the survey or the questions being asked however wish to support academic research where there may be a benefit to people living with RA we therefore suggest you consider completing the online survey in support of this student. Here are the details of the research. Have you been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis & are you over 18 years old?
Did you answer “yes” to both questions above?
If you did, then would you like to take part in a very interesting research about Rheumatoid Arthritis and the role of personality in it?
