Skip to main content Researchers at the University of Western Australia, School of Psychological Science, are looking for young people with endometriosis and their parents to identify their help-seeking experiences and needs, with the long-term objective of creating a practical resource tailored for young people. The potential resource aims to improve young people’s ability to seek help confidently and effectively.
Who can participate?
Researchers are seeking pairs of:
Young people aged 16-24, who have an endometriosis diagnosis,
And one of their parent/guardians.
You may be eligible to participate if:
You can speak English confidently enough to have a 1-hour conversation.
You reside in Australia.
No special knowledge is required. Participants can be from anywhere within Australia and will be reimbursed for their time.
What does the research involve?
Participants will be asked to attend an online interview (one-on-one) with a female researcher for approximately one hour. Young people and parents/guardians will be interviewed separately. Interview questions will explore what the help-seeking process is like for young people and their parents/guardians and assess how they can be better supported.
