Parkinson’s Disease – knowledge of and attitude toward existing and emerging treatment options

My name is Paula Abola, and I am currently pursuing my PhD in Clinical Research at the University of Jamestown, focusing on Parkinson’s Disease.

As a project towards my PhD dissertation, I am conducting a study on the knowledge of and attitude toward existing and emerging pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments for Parkinson’s Disease across different geographical locations. I have received Institutional Review Board approval from the University of Jamestown.

The study involves a survey that will take approximately 10-15 minutes.

The target audiences are:

1. Patients with Parkinson’s Disease,

2. Practitioners who treat/care for patients with Parkinson’s Disease.

Would it be possible to distribute my survey to people with Parkinson’s Disease and to practitioners (doctors, caregivers, therapists, nurses) who treat/take care of people with Parkinson’s Disease?

Here is the link to my survey: https://qualtricsxml5cp94kjq.qualtrics.com/…/SV…

If you are willing to help but distributing the survey via email is not possible, please reach out to me, and I will send you a poster that you can use to recruit participants for my study.

I appreciate all your help!
