Research Project on Music Listening and Psychosis

(Please delete if not appropriate)

My name is Mark Rowles. I am a PhD student at the Royal College of Music in London conducting a project which explores the role of music listening in the lives of individuals who experience psychosis. I also have experience of caring for a loved one who has experienced psychosis for many years.

This is a highly under researched area, and I am hoping to help shine a light on this topic which appears to be so important in the lives of individuals who experience psychosis. This study has been created in consultation with individuals who experience psychosis. This study has been approved by the Royal College of Music Ethics Committee.

Please see the attached poster and link below for more details. https://forms.office.com/e/r0Bg1gvY43. If anyone is eligible and able to share their experiences, and/or share the study, I would be most grateful! Any data you provide will be stored separately from your email address (if you choose to provide one - this is only necessary if you wish to participate in the Amazon voucher draw) and will not be traced back to you. This study takes around 10-20 minutes to complete. The first couple of pages are quite wordy - this is mainly standardised information before you reach the research questions.

Please do get in touch via comments/DM, or email me at mark.rowles@rcm.ac.uk if you have any questions at all.

Many thanks,

Mark
