QLD?

Hi, Can you please let me know if you will be conducting this is Brisbane.
 
This will be happening in Brisbane, I just don't know when yet... Im sure somebody does know but they haven't told me yet.
 
mebbe you could also ask them to email me... just an idea ;)
 
^^
I saw a poster at uni (ANU) for what I assume is the same study asking for e-mails to be sent to [email protected]. I sent them an e-mail a little while ago and didn't get a response so I sent another one today.
 
Thanks I'll wing them an email as well. Did it mention anything about the cash? I'm all about doing it for the money.
 
yeah, it's kinda ironic what most people will be spending the money they earn from the interview on ;)
 
Just an update.

I went and had the interview for this study today. The guy was friendly, appeared to know his shit and was completely non-judgemental. Pretty much what I expected considering who is conducting this study.

So yeah, I encourage people to participate! It's not often drug users get to give an impression of what the drug scene is actually like and who drug users really are, so if you give a shit, go out and do it. It only takes an hour and it's for a good cause. :)

Oh and you also get thirty bucks which is alright...I bought a CD!
 
I believe so. I did the Canberra one yesterday and he said they were doing it for like 3 or 4 more weeks, so the other states ones should be still going as well.

If you need info for the canberra one,
0439 794 591 or email [email protected]
you can ring or sms the dude

Other states I don't know the info for but they're either in here or...not happening. I don't know. The Canberra info wasnt posted in here but there were little posters around the university that was conducting it advertising it and its all part of the same Australia-wide study.
 
Thanking you buddy ;) im actuall more intersted in the victorian interviews seeing as a reside in albury/wodonga but i will be in melbourne this week so CBM or other fellow BLers from melbourne help would be muchly appreciated ;) cheers!
 
mebbe you could also ask them to email me... just an idea
Click to expand...

I have done this.. might try again.. not sure why it hasn't happened yet, although one thing to note is that the different cities don't have a coordinated recruitment strategy - and they may just be settling for their own strategies, for whatever reason.

Might suggest some sort of coordinated strategy for next year!

btw melbourne researchers are still interviewing, please contact us if you are interested, details in first post! cheers!
 
hehe it was me who suggested a coordinated strategy last year, but it seems although everyone agreed, it wasn't carried thru. anyways here are the Sydney details which I got today:

If you live in Sydney:

Phone Beth on 02 9385 0241 at the National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre, University of UNSW.
