Psychosocial adjustment in adolescents with a parent with MS

Researchers at the University of Southampton are carrying out a research project to understand how adolescents’ adjust to their parents’ MS. In particular, we would like to see which psychosocial factors are associated with good versus poor adjustment.

Families with adolescent children (13-18 years old) will be asked to complete questionnaires related to MS and to their psychosocial well-being. We will ask families to complete the same set of questionnaires at 2 times 6 months apart. The completion of the questionnaires will take approximately 30 minutes.

A £5 shopping voucher will be given as a “thank you” for your participation
