Volunteer as a Research Participant
As a university, SMU is in a privileged position to integrate research, education, and outreach. While research on mindfulness has been increasing and a variety of benefits to practicing mindfulness have been found, there are still lots to be learnt! If you are interested in mindfulness and would like to support our research, please click on the Sign Up button to join our research participant volunteer list.
Note that participation in research is always voluntary and you will receive an informed consent form before beginning any study providing you with essential information about the research. Further, all research at SMU undergo a rigorous review process and is approved by the SMU Institutional Review Board to ensure it is consistent with ethical research practices.
For all research studies, we intend to provide some feedback on the individual and/or summary results to participants as a small token of appreciation for your participation. For some studies, monetary and other incentives (e.g., vouchers, donations to your favorite charity) may also be available.
