Researchers seek online gamers

Do you play video games? Are you interested in the research process? Do you use social media?

We invite you to participate in a study about how internet technology (gaming/social media) is used, our relationship with these technologies and how these can be kept healthy.

We're looking for those who play massively multiplayer online (MMO) games, age 12-29 years, who use social media and who are willing to do the following:

  • fill in a 40-minute questionnaire
  • wear a Fitbit for a week.
  • install a usage monitoring app on your phone for a week.

Consent from parents/guardians is required for those under 18.

The research is conducted by researchers and students of the Institute for Health and Sport, Victoria University, Australia, and is funded by the Australian Research Council.
