Why Join a CBITs Study?
About one in five adults experience a mental health condition in any given year. Despite this common experience, it can often be difficult to access care due to cost, transportation and time limitations.
At the Center for Behavioral Intervention Technologies (CBITs), we are passionate about using technology to connect people with skills and tools that improve psychological well-being and promote general health. If you or someone you know has concerns about mental health, or you think you might be at risk, you may be eligible to participate in one of our paid research studies.
Input from study participants is incredibly valuable and helps make research better. By working together, we can help improve programs and tools for individuals struggling with their mental health.
Teens & Young Adults
Digital Support for Adolescents with Self-Injury
We are interviewing teens (14-17) to learn how they experience and manage self-injury and how technology can support them.
Screener for Nonsuicidal Self-Injury
This study will help develop a brief online assessment to better understand and help young adults (18-24) who self-harm.
Adults
FoodSteps App Trial
We are seeking volunteers (ages 18 and older) who struggle with binge eating and managing their weight to test a mobile web app called FoodSteps.
