Volunteers Needed for Study on Coping with Parkinson's

[Anita McQuillen <Amcquillen@xxxxxxx>]

I am looking for volunteers in the Tallahassee, FL, and San
Antonio, TX, areas for a research project designed to help
understand how people respond to and cope with Parkinson's
disease.  The results of this study may eventually help to identify
ways of responding and coping that can contribute positively to life
satisfaction for people dealing with Parkinson's and other major
medical problems.

Participation involves filling out a questionnaire and being
interviewed.  The questionnaire, which takes about an hour to
complete, asks how Parkinson's has affected you and how you
respond to having Parkinson's.  The interview, conducted at time
and place convenient to you, also takes about an hour.  In the
interview you will be asked for more information about your
Parkinson's symptoms and you will be asked to expand on some of
the answers given in the questionnaire.  All the information you
provide will be kept confidential.

If you are interested in participation and live in Tallahassee or San
Antonio, please return your name, phone number, postal address and e-mail
address to me at amcquillen@xxxxxxxx
