About the study
This study explores how telehealth consultations shape people’s perceptions and daily experiences. This study is one arm of the larger QuEST project, and will help to develop knowledge on consumer experience of telehealth consultations.
Who can participate?
This study is open to anyone aged 18-44, who is a native speaker of English, does not have sarcoidosis (including first degree relatives), and is able to attend the simulated consultation in-person at the Acton campus of ANU.
What does participation involve?
In this study, 130-150 participants aged 18–44 will be asked to complete questions about themselves (e.g., age, gender, etc) to determine whether they qualify for the study. People who meet the requirements will then be asked to physically attend a 30-minute simulated telehealth consultation at the Australian National University Acton campus. Participants will then complete online surveys about their simulated consultation experience, and perceptions of telehealth consultations. This includes a follow-up survey that needs to be completed no later than 2-3 days after the consultation (counting weekends).
