Recruitment Call: Exploring how Autistic people think and feel about their body and eating, and certain eating styles

What's the call about?

Researchers from Anglia Ruskin University & Michigan State University are recruiting individuals to participate in a research study exploring autistic people’s thoughts and behaviours toward eating, as well as certain eating styles. As a participant, you will be asked to answer some questions about yourself and then details about the way you eat. You can skip any questions you don't want to answer, and your participation in this study would take about 60 minutes. For more information on this study, please take a look at the study advert and participant information sheet.
