We are conducting a study at the Department of Psychology, Royal Holloway, University of London exploring how highly sensitive individuals experience eating in everyday life. The aim of this research is to better understand how sensory, emotional, cognitive, and social factors may shape eating experiences among people with high environmental sensitivity.
Participation involves:
• Completing a short online questionnaire assessing environmental sensitivity
• Some participants may be invited to take part in an online interview (approximately 60 minutes) about their experiences with food and eating
To take part you must:
• Be 18 years or older
Additional information:
• Participation is voluntary
• All information shared will be confidential and anonymised
• The interview will be conducted online
If you are interested in taking part, please follow the link below: Qualtrics Survey | Qualtrics Experience Management
Do you consider yourself to be a Highly Sensitive Person?
Do you regularly spend time in nature and feel that these experiences are meaningful or positively impact your wellbeing?
If so, you may be eligible to take part in an interview study exploring how highly sensitive people experience and make sense of their time in nature in relation to wellbeing.
To participate in this research, you must:
• Be aged 18 years or older.
• Identify as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). (You can find the official self-test on Elaine Aron’s website here: https://hsperson.com/test/highly-sensitive-test/)
• Engage with nature regularly (e.g., parks, countryside, woodland, beaches, gardens).
• Feel that your experiences in nature are meaningful or positively impactful.
• Be willing to discuss your personal experiences of nature and being a Highly Sensitive Person in a one-to-one interview.
• Have access to a stable internet connection and a private space.
• Have sufficient English comprehension.
• Feel that taking part will not interfere with any medical or psychological treatment or cause distress.
What does participation involve?
Interviews last approximately 60 minutes and are conducted online via Microsoft Teams. The Interviews are completely confidential.
Before participating, you will be provided with a detailed Participant Information Form, which you will be required to read and understand before giving informed consent. You may withdraw from the study at any time without giving a reason. If you would like, you are welcome to bring or share a photograph that represents a meaningful experience in nature. This is completely optional and will simply be used to support discussion during the interview.
All interviews are confidential, and quotes used from your interview will be anonymised by changing or removing any personally identifiable information
