ARE YOU PREGNANT OR JUST HAD A BABY < 2 WEEKS AGO?
We have an exciting study
for you to participate in!
University of Toronto
researchers are currently recruiting
over 5000 new mothers AND fathers across Canada to participate in an innovative
and exciting new study. We would like to learn more about the feelings,
stresses, and parenting activities that both new mothers and fathers experience
together and how we can best support the WHOLE family within the first two
years of their baby’s life. Study participation involves the completion of
questionnaires online or by telephone. Each questionnaire will take about 1
hour to complete, depending on your answers to questions. As a couple, you may
receive up to $230 in gift cards for completing questionnaires.
What is involved?
Study participation involves a
5-minute screening interview to determine whether or not you and your partner
are eligible to participate. If you are eligible, you both will be asked 30
minutes worth of additional questions. When your baby is 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and
24 months old, you and your partner will be emailed separately a link to an
online questionnaire to complete. You both will be asked questions about how
you are feeling, your parenting experiences, your baby’s development, and
health services you may be using. Follow-up questionnaires can also be
completed if necessary by telephone with a research assistant based on your
availability.
How will this study help
future parents and their babies?
Sharing your experiences as
parents in the first two years of your child’s life will help us to assist
families in the future who experience similar challenges, thoughts, and feelings.
We are hoping to improve the quality of the care and services we provide to the
WHOLE family. Upon study completion, you may request a report of the findings.
As a Thank You…
You and your partner will each
receive a $15 gift card for every completed questionnaire ($90/person or
$180/couple). If you and your partner complete all questionnaires, your family
will receive an additional $50 gift card (up to $230/family) at the end of your
study participation. You may select gift cards from a variety of choice
vendors.
