Impact of Epilepsy on Youth
Sat, 07/17/2004 - 02:23Topic: Family & Friends
My name is Allison Clarke and I am conducting research under the supervision of Dr Christine Critchley and Dr Roslyn Galligan in the School of Behavioural Sciences, towards a Doctorate of Psychology (Health) degree at Swinburne University of Technology in Victoria, Australia. My study examines differences in how young people live with Epilepsy. Participants may be male or female, between the ages of 10 and 24 years. The results of this research will help in designing programs that can help better meet the needs of young people who have Epilepsy. Epilepsy Australia and Epilepsy New Zealand are supporting this research project.An electronic version of the survey can be access from http:/www.ozinfo.com.au/acepl.htm.
