Are You or Your Partner Currently Pregnant? Paid Study Opportunity for First-Time Parents

Psychology study on the transition to parenthood!

Researchers are interested in examining how couples navigate the transition to parenthood and all of the emotional and physiological changes this important, yet stressful, transition may bring.

As part of this study, we will have couples complete seven different sessions/tasks between their second trimester of pregnancy and 12 months post-partum. Two sessions are in person; five are online surveys.

Participating couples can earn up to $435 in Amazon gift cards throughout the course of the study.

We are looking for couples in Northwest Arkansas who meet the following eligibility criteria:

  • Someone is currently pregnant (less than 31 weeks along)
  • Both partners are at least 18 years old
  • Couples can be dating or married but must be in a monogamous relationship
  • This is the first child for both partners
  • Both couple members must be able to come to the U of A twice (once during pregnancy and once around six months post-partum)
  • Both couple members must be interested in participating in the study!

Please visit our website www.uarkpeainapod.com for more information.

If you are interested in participating, complete the interest form or email uark.pea.in.a.pod@gmail.com.
