Looking for adults to participate in Mindfulness Research

[symali]

Hi,

 

I am an MSc student at Goldsmiths College: University of London.

 

Myself and another student are currently looking for participants with a diagnosis of ASD or Aspergers, or for individuals who think they may have High functioning Autism or Aspergers but have not yet been diagnosed. Our research is being supervised by Dr. Lorna Goddard.

 

Participants need to be over 18 years of age and be able to travel to Goldsmiths College: University of London SE14 6NW.

 

 

Research has shown that individuals with ASD/Aspergers have deficits in their mood, aspects of cognitive function and ability to recall memories based on personal experiences. This type of intervention has been found to be successful in improving these abilities.

 

 

 

We would meet on 2 occasions 1-2 weeks apart. The first meet will take approximately 2 hour 15 minutes. The second meeting takes approximately 1 hour 30 mins .

 

 

For more information or if you would like to participate please email me at ps203sm@gold.ac.uk

I attend a mindfulness group every Thursday and find it really beneficial.

Hi,

 

We have had good feedback so far from the participants we have provided a mindfulness CD for. I am glad you find it beneficial. Hopefully this research will provide evidence to back this up if we can get enough participants.
